Church-Vetted Request: #6092 • Urgency: High • Demographic: Child-Centered Need • City: Long Beach • State: California • Zip Code: 90805 • County: Los Angeles • Submitted By: Hill City Church

Story

•
1 Child 1 Adult

A devoted grandmother is stepping in to provide emergency care for her 1.5-year-old grandson after he was removed from his home. To prevent him from being placed in a non-family foster home, she has been asked to take him into her care immediately. The baby is the son of her eldest son, and while she is eager to welcome him, the unexpected responsibility has created a financial strain.

With two children already in her household, she is in urgent need of essential supplies for her grandson, including clothing (socks and pajamas), diapers, wipes, sippy cups, and groceries. Unfortunately, it will take 2-3 months before she receives financial assistance for his care.

DCFS is preparing to transfer the baby from San Diego to her home right away. Your kindness and generosity can help ensure that this grandmother has the support she needs to provide a stable and loving environment for her grandson during this critical time.

She really would love a church to walk alongside her. She needs love and support right now, as she tries to get her life together for her and her children.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

Single mother of 2 young children with a baby due in June. She was homeless but was able to move into housing and keep her children with her. She is in need of 2 car seats for her kids, currently she is unable to drive because she cannot afford car seats. She is a great mom that has worked hard to give her kids a new life but now she needs to make sure she is able to transport them safely. Here are the links to the type of car seat she is needing. This car seat will be able to grow with her children so she will not need to keep buying new ones as they grow.

Go To Link

These kids have experienced a hard life, and we would love to see them thrive and feel safe and this is a great start to aid in supporting them. As her family grows getting them around is going to get harder so there is also a need for a double stroller. Here is a link to what she is needing: Go To Link

Help Make a Foster Care Placement

We are celebrating Foster Care Awareness / Appreciation month by hosting a FREE POOL PARTY at River Country Water Parks in Muskogee Oklahoma. We will be inviting current foster and adoptive families from 10+ counties surrounding the Muskogee area to attend. In addition to the pool party, we will be offering information to families of local resources and churches that they can connect with as well as dates for summer activities for VBS and children / youth camps that churches are participating in and inviting children to come to.

The party will be Saturday, May 31st from 6:30-8:30pm with capacity being roughly 700-800 individuals. We will have an RSVP process for the families. We are asking for our networking churches to contribute to the cost of renting the water facility out - $1,200. Any amount helps! If you have questions, please reach out to your community coordinator or 111project East Central OK Regional Manager - Jason Grewe
