Request: #227640 • Urgency: High • Demographic: Child-Centered Request • City: Grayson • State: Georgia • Zip Code: 30017 • County: Gwinnett • Submitted By: Positive Impact International/ Gwinnett County Safe Place • Lead Church: Perimeter Church

Story

•
1 Child

We’re reaching out with a special opportunity to make a life-changing difference in the life of one of the youth currently staying in our emergency shelter. This young person has been working hard to move forward and build independence—and is now ready to take the next big step: earning their driver's license.

In order to do this, they need to complete a certified driver’s education course, which costs $350. This training is not just about driving—it’s a pathway to employment, college, and freedom that many of us take for granted.

We are prayerfully asking for your help in sponsoring or contributing toward this cost. Any amount helps, and together we can ensure this youth takes the wheel of their own future—both literally and figuratively.

We have chosen New London Driving School

Both A1 Driving and Drive Smart offer a scholarship for students age 15-17 to participate in classes and get their license at no cost. Ask to see if New London accepts the state wide scholarship. Or Google it to find the form.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

A couch is one of those items that help a house really feel like a home. It is a place where everyone can come together and watch a movie, read a book, or talk about their day. When a family doesn't have anywhere to relax together, everyone ends up going to their own beds to sit down and that can make it harder to connect as a family. This single mom living with her adult daughter and her elementary daughter would love a place to sit down as a family. Mom works hard to make sure that everyone's basic needs are met, but that doesn't leave anything extra for a large expense like a couch. Please consider donating your gently used couch to a family in need. Thank you!

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

This request is for a refugee family struggling with fertility for the last year and a half. Mother is taking fertility medication and has been advised by physicians to use ovulation kits to increase the chances of successful pregnancy timing, but the family is unable to afford kits. If possible, having enough kits for multiple cycles would be beneficial.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

I am working with a single mother who is facing the threat of eviction for her and her 1 year old baby. She works full-time in addition to caring for her baby. She attempted to reach out to St. Vincent de Paul, but they have not been able to help her with rental assistance. This mother is also actively participating in our parent cafes to expand her knowledge and skills as a mother. From the start of working with this mother, she has been nothing but positive and determined to try any and all resources that could help (all the while working a full-time job and caring for her little one).

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

This request pertains to a 6-year-old girl and her current placement with her Grandmother. The child is in need of her own bed. For the first few weeks of her being placed with her Grandmother, she was co-sleeping with her in her bed. Not only was this a necessity at the time, but it was also the child's preference. Sleeping with her Grandmother made her feel more comfortable and safe. Now that she is settling in with Grandma, the family is requesting support for acquiring a bed for the child. We are looking to get a twin bed set for her. She needs a frame, mattress, bedding, and a pillow. Having her own bed will help foster her independence and improve her relationship with her Grandmother. Any assistance for this matter would be SO greatly appreciated and it would go a long way for this child and her family.

Help Improve an Adult’s Well-Being

A member of Doxa shared a request where they would benefit in having another bed since they assist their neighbor kids while their mom works doubles to make ends meet. Having a bed will allow her to serve the kids in having their own space when they spend the evenings over.

I placed Full/Double, but if you have a twin that works too. Let me know if you have any of the items or want to contribute. Kayley and myself, Nikolai, would be the contact person and I can handle PU and drop off of these items. Thanks y’all!

Help Make a Foster Care Placement

We are in urgent need of funding to purchase two mattresses (we highly recommend with waterproof covers) for a foster family who is working to get siblings placed in their home. As part of the placement transition, they will be hosting the children for some overnight visits soon and they have worked to purchase beds for their home. As a result, they are asking for help in purchasing the mattresses to put on the beds due to the sudden financial strain. These kids will be looking to make this home a permanent placement, so these items would be for use long into the future. If you can support this family from our own church in some (or all!) of these items, please donate now. If you have bedding items available that you can donate, please mention that. We would like to purchase the mattresses brand new. Thank you for your consideration and support!
