the family consists of maternal grandmother, dad, and 3 children. MGM's medical issues prevent her from keeping up with household maintenance. Dad helps as much as he can. The front yard has some items that need to be removed. There is a broken window in the front yard. Given the children's young age, the family would benefit greatly from these services.

Single parent requesting toddler bed for her youngest. I have a crib mattress that will fit on one, but needs the base. Family lives in Blackhawk Commons.

The mother and father have a lot of mental health issues, and their 2-year-old son is special needs. The parents struggled to keep up with keeping the house clean and the child went and stayed with a grandparent until the home was cleaned, and the parents began mental health services. The child's old mattress had been some urine stains on it and smelled of urine and needed to be thrown out. The parents cleaned the home and began mental health services and now it is time that the child comes home but first he needs a new bed set. Parents are asking for assistance getting new bedding so their child can come back home.

**Note: the mattress protector only had twin and queen modifier, if it comes in a toddler size that would be preferred but twin will do if not.

Basic Needs- Toothbrushes

We are currently working with a family of eight in Payne County, consisting of a mother, father, grandmother, three girls, and two boys. This is a foster family and they have limited income. Over the past month, the family has made significant efforts to improve their living situation and is currently in the process of moving. They are in need of a $50 Visa gift card to cover laundry expenses at the laundromat. Providing this assistance would help them continue managing other financial responsibilities during this transition. Your support would offer meaningful relief, reinforce the family’s progress, and remind them that they are part of a caring and supportive community. Thank you for considering this request, your generosity and dedication are truly appreciated.

Family is being reunited and has a new home. Working on gathering things to make it feel more like a home and help them get back on their feet. Starting with the beds. I have a full size bed for mom, but looking for twin size beds for each of the two boys. Mom has asked for pillows and I would love to find them bedding as well. Boys are into Pokemon and Sonic the Hedgehog but anything blue would work.

A single mother who is the full-time caregiver for her disabled daughter is struggling to pay her rent after her monthly payment went up. She has starting driving for DoorDash and is looking for other ways to earn income while caring for her child, but she has gotten behind. She needs $262 by May2nd to avoid eviction. Please consider helping this family.

Our church is working together with a family who was recently homeless and is getting back on their feet. For years they have been deeply invested in serving our community. The mother has been a constant source of support, providing food and childcare assistance to local churches, always giving selflessly to others.

We are asking for support to help this family thrive with groceries, summer clothes and shoes for the children, toiletries, laundry detergent, and a gas card. Please consider supporting this family.

WE ARE ENTERING THIS REQUEST IN SUPPORT OF A FAMILY AT MT. ZION CHURCH, AND WILL BE GRATEFUL FOR ANY SUPPORT AND PARTNERSHIP FROM AREA CHURCHES

Here is the story from Mt. Zion:

This request supports a family of 5, including multiple children and a mother who recently delivered a baby via emergency C-section. Due to complications during delivery (e.g., including significant blood loss), the mother faces an extended recovery period. Without paid family leave, this has created financial strain on the household, leaving them approximately two months behind on rent.

This family would be grateful for alternative forms of support so they can redirect their limited funds toward housing.

Immediate needs (with weekly spending on each item) are as follows:

• Groceries - $250
• Gas - $100
• Formula - $50
• Baby Essentials - $50
• Household Essentials - $50

We would like to support this family for 2 weeks worth of expenses, which is reflected in the itemized needs. Thank you for your support!

We are excited to announce that Center Church is collecting items to stock our newly opened Care Closet. Our goal is to provide emergency supplies to families in need right here in City Heights and the surrounding areas.

We are in need of the following items: 25 Twin Bedsheets 10 Standard Pillows 10 Boxes of Diapers 10 Boxes of Baby Wipes 10 Boxes of Ninjamas/Goodnights Kids Clothing (Ages 0-10yrs)
