The father of a family of five suddenly passed away without any life insurance. The family is not only mourning this profound loss but also finds itself in a financial crisis. In addition to funeral expenses, their one working vehicle is experiencing electrical issues and cannot be used until it is repaired. They also need to replace their oven.

The family is in need of food for the home. The have been to food banks. But the need is more. Mom needs to feed the kids 3 meals a day. This will help mentally with school and focusing.

A Hispanic family of four in our community is facing financial hardship and needs support. The husband is the only one who can work because mom is home taking care of her 2 young children ( 14 months and 6 years), one with severe autism and needs a lot of attention. The family could use help with groceries, a double bed and clothes for the children. Mom is in need of basic personal items such as soap, shampoo, and feminine products as well.

Grandma is the legal guardian of her three grandchildren. The family would benefit from having bicycles for each child, helmets for safety, locks to prevent theft and a carry cot to bring groceries home in.

Locks with a key would be preferred rather than a number.

The family has the children returning home. They are in need of a pack n play for a boy, and bedding. Mom is on the road to recovery. She has done all that is needed. This will help to secure sleeping for the child.

This request is on behalf of a 17 year old male high school student. December 2024 the student was hospitalized for mental health issues. Student was released into his mother's custody 4 days after being admitted to the hospital. Once at home student was met with mixed reactions about the experience from various family members and was told that he was weak and needed to toughen up. Despite the lack of moral support the student has began to make progress in the right direction with the help of weekly therapy sessions and mentoring from the youth pastor at Crenshaw Christian Center. Attending summer camp would give this student a much needed break from his home life and an opportunity to find much needed support and encouragement among his peers. This young man has attended various college tours and wants to pursue occupational therapy upon high school graduation.

I am submitting this request on behalf of a 17 year old high school male that is currently staying at a friends house due to being evicted out of his former home. This student is the oldest of 4 siblings. Mom is staying in temporary housing with his younger siblings and is sending what little finances she has where the student is staying. The student would greatly benefit from attending summer camp and would help to relieve some of the financial burden on mom. Student's father is not actively involved in his life and attending summer camp will give the student access to positive male role models as he continues to navigate his life. Thank you for your consideration of this request.
