Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

A single mom with 2 children, ages 5 and 1 has experienced some unexpected financial expenses and is currently behind on her rent. The mom is employed working 2 jobs, but does not get any other support such as child support or food stamps to help. She has to pay for daycare in order to be able to work. In addition, she had an aunt to die unexpectedly and this caused further financial strain as she had to take off work. She is asking for $1000 to pay for her rent. She is a Christian mom. Any assistance would be sincerely appreciated.

Stabilize Housing Insecurity

A blessed opportunity to help a young, Christian family make it through a very difficult time in the heat of summer. A mother and father trying to secure a roof over their young children and feed their family. Tragically, the mother just lost her baby during delivery; father had to take time off from work to take care of her. He is back working but they are behind a few paychecks.

They need help to stay in a hotel for 2 weeks while they save money to rent an apartment (the apartment isn't ready yet). They could also use help with essentials and food.

If we can help them now, it will stabilize their income and resources for the future.

We currently are fostering 3 children and want to continue to make their experience meaningful. We have a 12 year old girl who could use some basketball shoes (size 7.5) and probably extra socks.
