Hi there! I just cleaned the closet of my 5 year old and have two 4-5T coats and 4 pairs of size 4-5T pants in good condition. Is more clothing needed? I'm local and happy to drop off at the school tomorrow morning.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

Two year old sweet boy with two loving parents enduring financial hardship in need of 5T pull-ups and 5T clothing. Mother is a stay at home mother to a high energy boy with some developmental delays that require her constant supervision. Father working diligently to get the family into a bigger place with a backyard so his little boy can run in the grass rather than through a parking lot. Father makes very little in wages and their finances are stretched. Any assistance that could be provided for this family would be greatly appreciated. Asking for a large box of 5T pullups, and 5 outfit sets including pajamas for the little boy. He has been resistant to potty training, and growing like a weed, so pull-ups are in high demand for this family.

Support an Expecting Mom and Her Unborn Baby

A mom, 35 weeks into her pregnancy, came into our center last week. She shared that she needs help getting items for her baby as she does not have anything right now. This morning, she reached out to let me know that she has been scheduled to deliver her baby within the week. Currently, she needs a car seat so that she can bring her baby home safely.

Unfortunately, we do not have the capacity to offer her a car seat right now. She does not have a church community to share this need with. I let her know that I would reach out to the local churches in the area to see if anyone would be able to help.

When we purchase infant car seats, we purchase this specific one from Walmart: Go To Link We have found them to be cost effective. Before tax, it is $117.00.

This specific car seat does not need to be purchased, it is simply our recommendation. Please, do not offer a used car seat.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

I am caring for a single mother of two young children (6 and4) both of whom have autism, and one of whom is battling cerebral palsy. Since March, she has been unable to work, as her children require countless medical appointments and surgeries, demanding her constant presence and care. She is anxiously awaiting her children’s disability appointment later this month, a crucial step that will determine how she can keep a roof over their heads. With a hearing scheduled in July to address her unpaid rent, her future hangs in the balance. Despite all this, she remains fiercely committed—ready to work once her children are caught up with their medical needs. Her resilience in the face of such overwhelming challenges is nothing short of extraordinary. The weight of these struggles has caused her immense stress and anxiety, yet she refuses to let her children feel this burden. She continues to be their unwavering advocate, fighting tirelessly to secure stable housing and a better future for her family.
