Request: #222772 • Urgency: Normal • Demographic: Child-Centered Request • City: Los Angeles • State: California • Zip Code: 90044 • County: Los Angeles • Submitted By: Shields For Families

Story

•
2 Children 1 Adult

This request is for a family of two, a mother and her two children, ages 4 and 2. This family is in need of a refrigerator (new or used) as their current one is leaking water and is not refrigerating in certain parts. Due to this issue, the mother is only able to store a limited amount of food in the fridge and unfortunately, there are times when the food goes bad. This family is currently financially struggling and is unable to purchase a new refrigerator on her own. This mother is currently unemployed but is working towards enrolling her children in day care in order to begin looking for work. Regardless of their struggles and open DCFS case, this family is very united and resilient. Thank you in advance for supporting this family.

Help Support a Youth Aging Out

I am working with a 19 year old non-minor dependent. She recently moved into her own apartment. She is excited about her move and is motivated to increase her level of independence. She wants to earn a college degree and get a stable job. Unfortunately, her EBT benefits were unexpectedly discontinued, creating food insecurity in her home. While she will be receiving SILP funds, most of this funding will go towards her rent. Assistance with obtaining groceries are much appreciated as she plans to make adjustments to meet her needs in the long-term.
