This is a mother with two young children. She is a survivor of domestic violence. She is a strong woman who is trying to get back on her feet after a tragic incident.

I work with a nearly blind consumer who recently gave birth and is also raising an 18-month-old toddler and a 10-year-old daughter. She was an LPN before losing her vision and is an incredible mother. The family is in need of size 8 diapers or pull-ups for the toddler, as well as a portable toilet training seat with handles that can be easily removed for use outside the home. The newborn has enough diapers for now thanks to donations from out-of-state family. They are also in need of a toddler mattress for a bed frame she was able to get at a low cost. Though they’ve received many toys as donations, they lack toy storage or shelving, so the toys are still in bags, and if they get out of the bags it creates a fall hazard. Safe storage options like a toy box, shelves, dressers, or plastic drawer units would be very helpful in reducing risks, especially since she’s often carrying a child. I’ve helped set up baby gates to create a safe toddler area and added a pack-and-play in the living room for the newborn. However, their living room TV sits on an old metal stand with sharp corners and missing glass shelves, making it both a safety hazard and a waste of space. Any support—partial or full—would mean a great deal to this amazing family.

A 17-year-old girl who recently underwent a heart transplant is moving into a new apartment with her father. This family has faced a great deal of hardship over the past year—while she was hospitalized for several months leading up to the transplant, her father traveled back and forth between the hospital and home to care for his aging parents. Sadly, one of them passed away during that time. Their move-in date was unexpectedly moved up to tomorrow (Thursday, 4/17), and they are in urgent need of a $700 security deposit, as well as a few essential household items: a queen-size blanket, vacuum cleaner, towels, and washcloths. These items will help the family settle into their new place and have a sense of stability.

After surviving abuse and escaping her trafficker, this survivor has a chance to start a new life. Nine years ago, she became homeless after losing her job and being evicted with her young son. With nowhere stable to go, she sent her son to stay with a friend temporarily. During this vulnerable time, she fell into the hands of a trafficker. That same friend later convinced her to sign over guardianship of her child, which became permanent. After suffering a brutal assault at the hands of her trafficker, she was determined to break away and rebuild her life. Despite her securing employment, the cost of child support and housing costs, made reuniting with her son difficult. She entered the Orange County Rescue Mission, completed court-ordered therapy, parenting classes, and drug testing, earned her GED, and enrolled in college, all while fighting for custody for her son. Today, she has been approved for Section 8 housing and finally has a safe, stable apartment. However, before she can move in and receive custody of her son, she needs a few essential items: a refrigerator and a mattress. With your support, we can help provide these basics, and with them, restore hope, dignity, and the foundation for a fresh start for her and her son. Once she’s settled into her new apartment, she plans to petition the court to end the guardianship and reunite with her son. Your generosity can help make this life changing moment possible.
