I am supporting a young woman who is 7 months pregnant and in-between housing. As she begins to prepare for the arrival of her son, she is in need of a crib, mattress, bedding, and a stroller to help her out after he is born. Any other kinds of baby supplies like diapers and clothing for the baby would also be incredibly helpful. This soon-to-be mother was attending a 4-year college with aspirations to become an immigration attorney, but decided to take a break this semester due to her pregnancy. She is currently looking for FT or PT work to help supplement her household income. This support with these baby supplies will offer her family some breathing room while looking for new work and a new residence.
Here are the items she would like support with if at all possible: Go To Link - Delta Children Essex 4-in-1 Convertible Baby Crib, Bianca White with Natural Legs ($219) Go To Link - Letmxiu Premium Crib & Toddler Mattress, 100% Knitted Fabric, Premium Fleece Surface-Hypoallergenic, 5" Thick Firm Soft Crib Mattress,... ($69) Go To Link - Mompush Wiz 2-in-1 Convertible Baby Stroller with Bassinet Mode, Foldable Infant Stroller with Reversible Seat and Large UPF 50+ Canopy ($169) Clothing Gift Card for Baby ($100) Diaper Gift Card for Baby ($100)

We are reaching out on behalf of a courageous mother who has been navigating serious mental health challenges, including PTSD, anxiety, ADHD, and major depression. Since 2023, these struggles have intensified.
In April 2023, a lightning strike during a severe storm caused a fire in her duplex. Her landlord’s side was severely damaged, while her basement suffered water damage. The space where her family gathered and her kids did homework was left unusable. While they were physically safe, the trauma of that night has had a lasting impact.
Since then, she’s struggled to feel safe or connected to her home. Despite renting a dumpster, hiring professional help, and following her psychologist’s advice, the clutter and disarray remain overwhelming. She has been trying for two years, but it’s become clear she cannot do this alone.
At the encouragement of her support team at Treetops, she is reaching out again. We’re seeking help with organizing, decluttering, and light cleaning. A shelf or storage support would also make a big difference.
If you or your team can offer hands-on help or resources, your support will mean the world to her and her children

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?

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.

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.
