Help Improve an Adult’s Well-Being

Newly arrived Special Immigrant Visa holder family of 7 who fled from Afghanistan (US allies) is needing a bunkbed for 4 daughters to settle into a single bedroom in their 2 BR-1BA apartment this week.

Unfortunately, due to limited space in bedroom (needing to fit 2 sets of bunk beds), twin bunk beds will fit better than full bunk beds, so probably not flexible on that aspect of this request.

Depending on the bunk bed frame that you donate, we may or may not need box springs, so I didn't add those explicitly to this request.

Thanks!

Help Support a Youth Aging Out

We have a youth accepted to Georgia Gwinnett College starting in August. She will definitely need a laptop for school. Although her tuition should be covered by the state through the Independent Living Program (ILP), she will be living on campus and will have to pay her own dorm fees, ($400 per month). She will have a job on campus to try to cover those fees, but is also working now trying to save up for a car. She would greatly appreciate any and all help you could provide to set her up well to succeed at school. Please join us in praying for this youth!

Help Prevent a Child From Entering Foster Care

Hi there and thank you for checking this request. I am a DCS Family Support Services case manager in Maury County and I have a family of six who desperately needs help with a special Amino Acid-Modified Food for three of the five children. The children cannot process protein and need a special formula to provide a protein substitute. The family is trying to get insurance in order to pay for this formula but the insurance has been pending for over a month. Each can costs $45 and the children need a total of one can per day. If the family does not acquire insurance in the next week, the children will be going into Tennessee DCS custody in order for the children to have insurance and receive the formula and other necessary medications. All the prescriptions are covered by insurance. The formula can be purchased at Abbott Store and I am providing a link to the formula. Go To Link
Any amount is helpful, but a case would greatly help. Thank you so much for considering this family.

Help Remove an Educational Barrier for a Child

Backpacks & BBQ is an annual outreach event hosted by Middletown Nazarene Church that brings together our church, community, and local partners to support students and families preparing for the school year. We provide free backpacks, serve a full cookout-style meal, and offer a safe, fun, and welcoming environment for children in need in our community.

Each summer, hundreds of neighbors come together at our church for this day of joy and generosity. Children leave ready to start school with confidence and dignity — and families leave knowing they are seen, supported, and loved.

More information about the event can be found here: Go To Link

As part of this event, we want to provide sanitary and hygiene products for the students, so they can go back to school with confidence.
