You have helped this family before. Previously, the guardian reported health issues and family situations that occured. There are four adults in the household. One of the adults is on disability and the other has medical problems and therefore cannot work. One of the adults will be starting at Taco Bell or Pepsi, whichever calls him first. There are two children in the household. The guardian reported they have paid $507 towards an AEP bill but still owe 623.38. The guardian reported they have applied for help from social services and she is calling the resource center. She reported she did not turn in the food stamps renewal in on time. She reported that social services has ten days to complete the food stamp work and she reported it has been 2 or 3 days. She is hoping social services will help because she has not recieved help from them last year and did not do the fueling assistance this past winter.

I have a grandmother that is taking care of her grandchild. The child is almost 4 months old and with the weather getting warmer Grandma would like to be able to take walks with the baby and use it while out and about! Grandma is also in need of a baby bathtub or seat for the bathtub, right now she has been bathing him in the sink with how small he is, but he is starting to get too big for the sink. Since grandma has taken on baby she has accumulated quite a bit of materials and item that she doesn't have storage for so it is cluttering up her house. I am just asking for some help to support this Grandma who is trying to raise her grandchild.

A young expectant couple has recently moved into their new apartment and is preparing to welcome a baby boy. While they’re excited for this next chapter, they’re facing financial hardship that makes it difficult to gather essential baby items. They are in need of a car seat for safe transportation, baby clothes made from cotton or bamboo—materials that align with their vegan values—and glass baby bottles to avoid using plastic. They are also hoping for reusable cloth diapers, which better match their commitment to sustainability and their lifestyle.

The family recognizes these requests may seem specific, but they come from a place of care and concern for their child’s health and the environment. They are truly grateful for any help and understand that fulfilling these needs may require extra effort. They are thankful for the compassionate support offered through CarePortal. New or gently used items that meet these needs would be a true blessing during this important season of life.

Recently, this mother made the courageous decision to leave a long-term, mentally abusive marriage to seek a better environment and home for her 11-year-old son and herself. She has also started taking college classes to get her degree to provide future support. She is participating in Pathway's DivorceCare where she is building supportive relationships as she starts this new journey with her son. She is moving into her own apartment and is needing some essential items. Their favorite color is any color of blue. Her son is also a fan of the Kansas City Chiefs. Her bedroom set is the queen size and his is the full size.

The washer & dryer can be used ones that are in good working condition. Thanks for supporting this family!

A family in our church had a five year old girl placed with them yesterday. She arrived with very little and needs basic items. She will be moving schools and the family has asked that she have some new items to ease this transition, along with every day items.

Our foster family of 7 with a baby on the way is in need of a meal train the week their baby is born (due date is May 3rd). We're hoping to have 5+ people sign up to each bring a large meal (10 servings) the week the baby is born. This will make a tremendous difference for this family as they transition into life with a newborn.

A father has recently gotten housing and needs items for him and his son to be comfortable in their home. A few items are listed but the apartment needs all the basics for living. Financial assistance is also welcome to help purchase needed items.
