A 14-year-old boy is in desperate need of some lightweight stretchy shorts and t-shirts to combat this brutal summer heat. This boy is approximately 5 foot 11 inches and 360 pounds, his waist-size is 46 inches (XXXL), and he likely wears a men's size XXXXXL (5-x) t-shirt. This request specifically is for 5-7 pairs of shorts and 5-7 t-shirts. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your consideration!

A hardworking family of three are in need of basic baby items for their young child. The family is seeking support with diapers (size 3 or 4), baby wipes, and a baby/toddler high chair. The mother is currently unemployed and staying home to care for their child full-time, ensuring the baby receives the attention and care needed during this critical stage of development. The father is employed and covering all household expenses, but with rising costs, they are facing difficulty affording these extra items this month. Providing these essentials will directly impact the child's safety and well-being by: keeping the baby clean and healthy, supporting hygiene and preventing rashes or infections, and by offering a secure age-appropriate place to eat, reducing the risk of choking or injury during mealtimes. Your generosity will help alleviate some of the family's financial stress while ensuring the child has a safe, healthy, and nurturing environment.

A family of five with one on the way (Mom is 22 weeks along) has fallen on extremely hard times. Not only is the pregnancy very high risk to both mom and baby, but both parents have lost their jobs and are unable to pay their rent for next month despite doing odd jobs, such as Uber, in order to meet their bills while they look for employment and complete their studies. Both of these parents are also full-time aviation mechanics students that look forward to a future in this field, but they still have a year or more left until they graduate. This family has faced homelessness before, but the stakes are higher now that Mom is pregnant. Between rent and utilities, they find themselves facing an uphill battle against time and are at maximum stress levels. Would you consider helping?

An aging out foster youth who has been in care for over 9 years idue to neglect and abuse from both a parent and a past caregiver is in need of household items as she moves out of foster care.

Youth is a 14 year old who boy recently was placed back with his mom on a 60 day trial. Mom has medical disabilities that make it hard for her to do some tasks. Now that Youth is back in the home, we are asking for assistance for mom with hauling away old furniture to clear out space, moving furniture to accommodate Youth and also an adult sibling with special needs that is moving into the home, and cleaning and painting the bedroom. This family would benefit from support from a community that wants to be hands on and engage with them.

The haul away is for furniture and could likely be done with a pickup or truck for a community that wanted to meet the family and help in that way.

A father at Point Church has recently regained custody of his three children and could use some clothing items for them. He is in need of a few shirts, a few pairs of shorts, a pair of pajamas, a few pairs of socks and underwear, and a pair of shoes for his 5-year-old daughter (clothing size 5-6, shoe size 11-13), 7-year-old daughter (clothing size 8-10, underwear size 10-12, shoe size 12-13), and 10-year-old son (clothing size 14, shoe size 5). Secondhand clothing in good condition is fine. It would be a blessing for them to have these items by July 11.

Young Spanish speaking couple just had 3rd child 6 weeks ago. Momma has not been able to get back to work yet and they are struggling on one income to make rent due beginning of July! Church of the Nativity has supported them and looking for additional church support from the community this month. Thank you!!

We have been connected to a family who is fostering through DHHS. This foster family has placement of 3 little children (ages from 4-8) that they are in the process of adopting. They had their washing machine and air conditioning break down in the same week and only had the funds to replace one, so they prioritized the air conditioning for the summer heat wave we had this past week. The family had a high capacity 5.3 cu-ft top-load washing machine to be able to meet with laundry demands of their family and would like their replacement to have a similar capacity and similarly top-loading. The youngest child has some higher needs and frequently wets the bed which requires regular use of a washing machine for larger bedding items. The family consulted a technician who reported the costs of the repair for the washing machine would be at least $800 and the technician recommended buying a new one over paying for repairs. The listed cost is for a 5.3 cu-ft top-load with delivery from Lowe's.

A mom and her five children urgently need to relocate due to an escalating domestic violence situation. After leaving an abusive relationship four years ago and working hard to build a stable life, her safety has once again been compromised. She has made the decision to move to another state where she has supportive family and has already secured permission to transfer her housing voucher and end her current lease. The family would like to rent a U-haul to transport their household to their new location.A quote for the U-haul has been acquired and totals: $1,375.97 Gift cards to Walmart or Amazon ($300) would also be helpful in setting up their new home once they arrive.

A mom of three recently found herself a single parent. She has found an apartment but needs assistance with the first month's rent (750.00).
