Story

•
6 Children 2 Adults

We have a family who has adopted 8 children out of the foster care system in need of help. Their home has become uninhabitable due to widespread toxic mold that was causing sickness and severe neurological symptoms in multiple family members. They are having to replace all of the porous items in their home to keep the children healthy.

A registry has been set up for the items they will need, including the mattresses ($133 each): Go To Link

Thank you for any help you can offer!

Help Preserve an Adoptive Placement

A local caregiver is requesting support to help cover summer camp costs for her 5-year-old son, a joyful and resilient recent kindergarten graduate. This child has been part of her family for four years and was officially adopted in late 2024. While parenting him comes with challenges, it has also been filled with incredible moments of growth and love.

The child is enrolled in the HASCI (Head and Spinal Cord Injury) Medicaid Waiver Program; however, summer camp is not a covered service under this waiver. The caregiver is seeking one-time assistance to give him access to a safe, structured, and enriching environment during the summer months—a place where he can build social skills, maintain routines, and continue his developmental progress.

This little one has multiple complex medical diagnoses, including: Autism Spectrum Disorder Global Developmental Delays Microcephaly Gait Abnormality Low Hemoglobin Developmental Delay Ongoing occupational, speech, and physical therapy needs

To help meet his nutritional needs, the caregiver has been purchasing Pediasure out of pocket for the past four years—another expense not covered by current supports.

This summer camp experience would offer more than just fun; it would provide much-needed routine, peer interaction, and growth in a supportive setting. Any contribution toward camp fees—or even toward his ongoing nutritional needs—would be deeply appreciated and make a lasting difference in this young boy’s life.

Help a Senior Improve their Wellbeing

As you may be aware, Dave Petke is in the hospital with a UTI and blood pressure problems. Sharon is not able to be at the hospital all the time, it wears her out and her health is not good enough for her to be there with him all the time. She’s tried just calling to check in, this morning she sat on hold for 45 minutes and had to call back three times before she finally got someone to answer. Someone is needed this week to sit with Dave each day between the hours of 8am-12pm to give Sharon time to get ready and get over there each day to be with him. Please do not share this need beyond our church family. You will be contacted with specifics of where to go when you select your day. Thank you!

Stabilize Housing Insecurity

I am working with a awesome, hard working Single mom that does amazing work helping others in the community is now facing some hardships. She and her family attended, participated wholeheartedly and graduated from our 14-week Strengthening Family Program and has been an outspoken advocate for family wellness. She was recently put in a very hard situation and received news that her landlord is selling her home expectantly, and she was put in a time crunch and after searching and searching for a new place she found one and has to come up with a deposit of $1000 to hold the unit. After talking with the new homeowner, he stated she could allow her to pay $500 by Monday 6/9/25 and the other $500 by Friday 6/13/25. If you can help, please be a blessing to this mom, please, she has helped so many families in her line of work, and she has just paid her rent where she is currently living and does not have the money for her deposit. If you could please help her so she and her children are not put out on the street, and can move into their new home. Anything you can donate would be a great help. Thank you!

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

One of our newly arrived families has moved into apartments that have no air conditioning and the family has no fans. We all know how hot it gets and the adults and the children can get overheated. If anyone can provide a free standing or window air conditioner or a couple fans, that would be wonderful. Thank you

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

I am reaching out on behalf of one of our Children’s Church students who is currently in foster care. Her mother has recently secured employment and is in the process of transitioning to a new home. While this is a positive step forward for their family, it has also placed a significant financial strain on them. Due to these circumstances, the family is unable to afford the registration fee for summer camp. However, we strongly believe that this child would greatly benefit from the experience—emotionally, socially, and spiritually. Camp would provide her with a safe, uplifting environment and a chance to grow in confidence and faith during a time of major life change. We are asking for help to cover the cost of her camp registration. Your support would make a meaningful difference in her life. Thank you for considering this request.
