Story

•
5 Children 1 Adult

I am working with a mother who has 5 children on trial home visit. The family suffered a tragic loss leading to some very hard times financially and emotionally. Due to this, the bill for utilities has gotten pretty far behind and has been shut off in the recent past. The mother has been able to gather enough money to keep the utilities on over the last month but is several months behind and needs help catching up. This mother has made incredible progress and is able to provide a beautiful home for her children. She is just struggling to catch up on some bills right now and could use some help with her utility bill. Paying all or a portion of the bill would be very helpful.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

A single mother and her one year old son fled an emotional and physically unsafe situation and unfortunately had to leave many of their items behind. The mother has utilized many community resources to gather back the essentials but she has not been able to attain a car seat for her son. This family would greatly benefit from a toddler convertible car seat to ensure the one year old's safety while travelling in a vehicle.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

I am working with a young single mother or a 4-month old baby girl. She has been doing very well for herself and has been utilizing community resources for diapers and formula whenever she can as she has not started receiving the Canada Child Benefit yet and her finances are limited. Her baby girl recently started rolling over and can no longer sleep safely in the bassinet. This young mother is in need of a crib for her little girl. This would increase the baby's safety and decrease her risk or injury from an accidental fall.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

We are seeking support for a family of three—a single father and his two children—who are in need of a carpet cleaner to help maintain a clean and healthy living environment. The father is working hard to care for his children and provide stability, but with limited resources and time, deep cleaning tasks like carpet care have become a challenge.

Providing a carpet cleaner—either as a donation or on loan—will make a meaningful impact in helping this family maintain their home, contributing to a more stable and nurturing environment for the children. This practical support will not only ease the father’s burden but also help strengthen the placement and long-term well-being of the family.

Need:

A functioning carpet cleaner (new)

Optional: cleaning solution or accessories if available

Please reach out if you're able to help support this family.

Thank you for your compassion and generosity in helping keep this family together and thriving!

Help Preserve a Foster Care Placement

Hope’s Promise is requesting financial assistance in purchasing Xfinity home security system setup for a year for a foster mom of three foster preteens. She also has two biological children in her home. This implication of home security would ensure felt safety and protection for the foster children and family unit as cameras placed around the home would positively impact peace of mind and increased security in the foster home. There are current significant safety concerns that are impacting their ability to feel safe coming and going due to a person involved in one of the cases for one of the foster youth knowing where the youth lives and following that youth. The foster mom is unsure they can maintain placement without safety concerns being mitigated and addressed for the family unit, and this would be a step in the right direction for them to have safety mechanisms put into place.

She is looking at the Base Home System with a one-time payment of $360. Great for smaller homes with 1-2 entrances. • Xfinity Home app, simple home control • 1 touchscreen controller • 3 door/window sensors • 1 pet-friendly motion sensor* • Battery + cellular system backup • Xfinity Home Security yard sign
