This request is for a grandmother who is a kinship provider for her grandchild. The grandmother has been caring for the now 1.5 year old child due to substance use by both of his parents. Grandmother and grandfather work very hard to support him. The mother just gave birth to a new baby who will be coming home with grandparents. They are in need of an infant car seat immediately to be able to take the baby home.

Resource Linkage is working with a single father of 5 children who is in need of community supports. The father is working closely with the school resource center to be linked to resources but he has expressed a need for help getting clothing and groceries for his children. The father recently moved to a new home which has taken some finances, he works a lot and is depending on his grandmother to help raise his children. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Please help us preserve a Kinship placement. A grandmother has cared for her granddaughter for over 3 years, but is now struggling financially. She needs assistance getting tires and a wheel alignment for her car which is her only means of transportation. Grandmother uses her vehicle to safely transport her granddaughter to and from school, therapy appointments and other court orders several times a week.

The family lives in orange county and has to travel all over for services / court orders, including to LA County. Grandmother is retired and has a fixed income. She responsibly uses her income to pay for essentials for the minor and funds extracurricular activities for her granddaughter to participate in during their visits. Over the past 3 years, grandmother has successfully focused her resources on caring for her granddaughter.

Recently the minor’s therapist recommended the minor to be enrolled in a school program that provides therapeutic services for children on the Autism spectrum. Grandmother is required to pay a portion of the weekly tuition, and this additional cost has limited Grandmother's ability to address this need without assistance. The cost of the new tires is $790.30, and the wheel alignment is $129.99 for a total cost of $920.29 that can be paid directly to the vendor. Your assistance with helping grandmother replace her car tires so that she could continue providing a safe environment to her grandchild would be greatly appreciated.

The wonderful relative caregiver has asked for assistance obtaining formula: Enfamil gentle ease. The caregiver is currently unemployed and has an appointment scheduled with WIC later in the month. Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

Dear CarePortal Church Partners- Help Support a Young Mom Reuniting with Her Children:

We have the opportunity to support a courageous 23-year-old mom who is working hard to reunify with her four children. A former youth in the TYS (Transitional Youth Services) program, she is now participating in the Family Reunification Program and taking meaningful steps toward creating a stable home. Her children—two girls (ages 7 and 4) and two boys (ages 3 and 1)—are in need of proper beds to ensure they get the restful sleep they need to grow, learn, and thrive. In addition, a sturdy dining room table would give the family a place to share meals, build routine, and strengthen their bond. We’ve included Amazon links for convenience, but any store welcomed and very much appreciated. If your church can assist in meeting any of these needs, it would be a tremendous blessing to this family during this important transition. Thank you for your ongoing support and heart for families in our community.

The school has been working with a mom who was reunified with her children about a year ago. As a single parent she has needed extra support in keeping up with all of her kiddos and their needs. They've recently been accepted to move into a more affordable home at the beginning of June but they had to move out of their current place earlier than that. They are in need of a hotel room to hold them over until their rental is ready for move in. (The landlords are actually from MP!) The hotel is $84/night and we are hoping to cover 5 nights. There are several other churches claiming other nights as well!

This request is for a young adult female currently in her junior year of high school, who experiences ongoing financial hardship within her family. She plays a significant role in caring for her younger sister, who has special needs. Despite these responsibilities, she maintains consistent school attendance and holds a part-time job. However, the job is located far from her home and provides limited hours.

She has expressed interest in applying for jobs closer to home that may offer more consistent hours, but she faces transportation challenges. The family car recently broke down, and she currently depends on others outside the home for rides, which has proven unreliable. She is looking for a bicycle or another form of transportation to help her access more stable employment opportunities.

This is a single mom who is currently pregnant and due at the beginning of June. She has requested an infant car seat and a stroller. She is moving into a shelter this week. Mom lacks a support system and is trying to rebuild a better life for herself and her child.

we are new to the care portal but hopefully you will see this correctly. my contact is ******@email.com

I am advocating for a mom of 2 who has had a stroke paralyzing her left side. While ordering a wheelchair for her, we discovered she is sleeping on a mattress on the floor. This mom has had three back surgeries and needs her bed high enough to be comfortably transferred in and out of bed and to be able to rest well. She is very humble and grateful for any help she may receive.
