I’m reaching out on behalf of a family in need — a single mother and her teenage son who are currently experiencing homelessness. The student, has a deep passion for basketball. According to his school counselor, he has recently become withdrawn and less communicative, likely due to the stress of his current living situation. However, when he’s on the court playing basketball, his entire demeanor shifts — it’s the one place where he seems to come alive. We strongly believe that participating in a Summer Basketball Camp this June would offer him not only a positive and structured environment, but also a critical emotional and mental outlet during a very challenging time in his life. We are seeking sponsorship support to help cover the cost of the camp. Your generosity would directly impact a young person’s life, offering him hope, community, and a chance to thrive through something he truly loves. Thank you for your time and commitment to supporting youth in our community.

A resilient single mother of one who was displaced by the recent LA fires is in urgent need of assistance. She lost both her home and job due to the devastation, and during this season of loss, she had to rely heavily on credit to meet basic needs for herself and her child. With the support of extended family, she has worked hard to get back on her feet securing a new job and recently moving into her own apartment. However, the weight of credit card debt from that difficult period still lingers. She has faithfully paid most of it down, but she is $720 short of fully catching up. This remaining balance is preventing her from fully stabilizing and reestablishing financial independence. Paying off this debt would immediately relieve a heavy burden and allow her to focus on caring for her child and maintaining the progress she’s made.

A family of six was tragically displaced during the Eaton Fire and has been living in survival mode ever since couch surfing, sleeping in their vehicle, and struggling to find stability. With no renters insurance and no support received through FEMA or other agencies, they have lost everything. They are currently staying in a temporary shelter that will eventually assist them with subsidized housing, but in the meantime, they are in urgent need of support. Needs include:Clothing and shoes for all children, Hygiene essentials, Grocery gift cards, Gas cards to help the parents attend school and medical appointments The family was recently connected to Greater Shiloh Church, who is committed to walking alongside them and providing ongoing relational and tangible support. Any help provided through this request will go a long way in helping them stay together and regain a sense of hope and stability.

Please consider helping a single mom and her 2 year old daughter here in our Scottsville community. They are in need of a refrigerator as theirs went out and now they do not have one. This would help them keep cold food instead of just shelf food for meals. This single mom works multiple jobs including an in-home bakery. Appliances are very expensive and finances are tight for her. Not only would this help with their food but it would also help her continue her business and the flow of income.

We have contacted Doug's Maytag in Scottsville and they have a new Amana for $667 or a new Whirlpool for $754. There is a $79 delivery fee and they will remove and dispose of the old one for her.

If you do not have a refrigerator to give, please consider giving financially through Go To Link In the "Give To" section select "Single Mom's Ministry" with a note for "Refrigerator".

Please help us to meet the need for a powered mower. We have an adult son thriving in our recovery community who provides care for his aging mother.
