Story

3 Children 2 Adults

Fostering Together is working a student who attends East Cobb Church Inside Out (high school ministry). Her father was recently sent to jail and her mother's whereabouts are unknown. She has been living with her brother and his family and has been able to remain at her current school which is very important to her. This week, the family was forced to move out of their living situation. They had been up to date with rent and able to make it pay check to pay check, but with the forced out move, it has put them in a difficult position facing homelessness. They do not have savings or margin to come up with a security deposit and first/last months rent along with all the new connection fees for utilities. We are requesting financial assistance for this family in order to get into safe housing, to keep them all together, and for the teenager to be able to remain in her current school. Once you commit to a donation, amount, Fostering Together will reach out to give you next step information. Thank you for considering to support this crucial need to stabilize the family with any amount you are able. Susan Phelps, Fostering Together Director, East Cobb Church

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

Hello all,

Requesting assistance with two toddler beds for two children; 2-year-old female and a 3-year-old male. The children had their own beds however the family needed to move and moved in the rain and the children's beds were ruined with the rain. I am wanting to help this family out as the parents are financially limited and have been cooperative with the Department. The children deserve to have a safe sleeping environment which is why I am asking for assistance for this family. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

This request is on behalf of a Hope Florida participant that is a single mom. She is a devoted mother of a fourteen-year-old girl and a newborn son. They live in a modest apartment, and she is doing everything she can to create a stable and safe environment for her children. She is employed and works at FedEx and earns approximately $450 per week. She is experiencing hardship and is unable to purchase all the daily items that her baby needs. After the birth of her son, she was placed on maternity leave which significantly reduced her income. With her rent at $1,700 a month and the rising costs of utilities, food and essentials she is struggling to stretch every dollar to provide for her children. To make things even more difficult she is parenting alone without child support. She is the sole provider, protector, and nurturer. A role she fulfills with resilience, despite the emotional and financial toll. This mom is seeking assistance with diapers for her infant son. This will help with the high cost of diapers so she can reallocate what little money she has toward urgent needs-groceries, utility bills, and clothing for her daughter to return to school. Please help this family with needs and provide some financial relief to mom. Your help will allow her to stand more securely and continue pressing forward to improve a future for her family. Your support will make this possible. The prices for the items needed was obtained using Go To Link

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

A previous mom we helped some time ago has stated the bed we gave is now worn. A photo was provided to show that. She would appreciate a twin bed for her son (mattress and box springs and rails, or platform frame) and a comforter. This will help her son to get the sleep he needs to be healthy and feel secure.

PLEASE NOTE: RISE CHURCH CAN MEET THIS NEED WITH A BED WE ALREADY HAVE IN OUR INVENTORY. NO FURTHER DONATIONS ARE NEEDED.
