Story

•
1 Child 1 Adult

A mother and her teenage daughter have recently moved into our community after experiencing homelessness. They’re now in a small one-bedroom apartment and are doing their best to get back on their feet. At the moment, they’re sleeping on a deflated air mattress on the floor. They've been able to gather some pillows, blankets, and sheets, but their biggest need is a queen-sized mattress and bed frame. In addition, a vertical dresser and basic kitchen items like plates, silverware, and utensils would be a huge help as they work to make their new space a true home. Providing these essentials would bring them comfort, stability, and a meaningful step toward rebuilding their lives.

An expectant mother is in need of basic items for a newborn due later this month (May). The mother's community health coach requested an infant car seat, diapers, wipes. These items will allow the child safe transport and will supply the baby's diapering needs for a few weeks. We still need funds for the CARSEAT, WIPES, and DIAPERS. You may click, "Yes, I Can Help!" if you would like to donate any amount of funds so we can purchase the items. Just type in the amount you'd like to contribute. Or, you can contact Oni if you would like to provide the items -- diapers (newborn). Thank you!

Help Make a Foster Care Placement

We are celebrating Foster Care Awareness / Appreciation month by hosting a FREE POOL PARTY at River Country Water Parks in Muskogee Oklahoma. We will be inviting current foster and adoptive families from 10+ counties surrounding the Muskogee area to attend. In addition to the pool party, we will be offering information to families of local resources and churches that they can connect with as well as dates for summer activities for VBS and children / youth camps that churches are participating in and inviting children to come to.

The party will be Saturday, May 31st from 6:30-8:30pm with capacity being roughly 700-800 individuals. We will have an RSVP process for the families. We are asking for our networking churches to contribute to the cost of renting the water facility out - $1,200. Any amount helps! If you have questions, please reach out to your community coordinator or 111project East Central OK Regional Manager - Jason Grewe

His father broke both his arms in a work accident due to faulty equipment. Since he is unable to work and the company has put a hold on workers compensation until July they are in need of assistance. The father is unable to work at least until he has surgery on both arms. Their current needs are food and gas for him to get back and forth to work and school. They have temporary housing with family but will need assistance with this need in the near future. If you can help or have any questions you can reach out to Austin Phillips.
