The family is currently served as a parental placement in an effort to prevent the child from entering foster care. The family is limited in income and has filed for custody. The family is having financial hardship while adjusting to the additional child in their household. We are requesting funding for a $300 dollar gift card to help the family purchase groceries. If this need is met, then it will assist in giving the family time to financially adjust to the additional household member and court expense.

Help Make a Kinship Placement

Two small children that have been in custody for a couple of months are disrupting from their foster placement this weekend and KVC has last minute been able to approve a relative placement. The home is in need of one 5 point harness car seat and two mattresses and bed frames(two twins or one twin and one toddler). These children will move likely on Sunday or Monday and while the relative can borrow the car seat for a week or so to go with the one they already have they will be giving up their bed for the kids to sleep in until we are able to locate beds for the children. Any assistance is appreciated, and the placement has a truck and is willing to pickup the beds from anywhere in the KC metro area on Sunday or Monday.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

A young family of 2 children ages 1 and 7 years old are requesting a washer and dryer as they moved into a house from an apartment. The couple have been here from Venezuela for about 2.5 years and help out at Centro Cristiano a Las Naciones with leading music. They moved from an apartment which had a washer and dryer and now they need to provide for their own. The father is looking for work and does odd jobs to help pay for rent, bills, food, clothing, etc. A washer and dryer will help mom take care of her kids so that they will be able to attend school and help their hygiene. Thank you for your help.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

We are requesting support for a mother and her three children who have recently moved from a shelter into a new home and are in urgent need of basic furnishings. The family currently has very limited household items, and the mother has specifically requested a small dining table so they can sit together for meals, as well as several lamps, as there is no lighting in their new space. Providing these essential items will significantly improve their living conditions and help create a stable, comfortable environment as they begin rebuilding their lives.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

Client Liaison received a referral regarding a family of 4 children one of whom is 18 and their mother and father. The family home had bed bugs and roaches. The home has since been treated but it was necessary to throw out all of the beds, bedding and possibly the couch to eliminate possible reinfestation. The family has been sleeping on air mattresses but one of the children popped his and now is sleeping on the floor. Family is working very hard to keep the home free from pests and are following all recommendations to keep the home pest free. They are in need of 4 twin size beds, 1 queen size bed and would love to have protective mattress covers for the mattresses if they are able to get those. Family would also be grateful for a couch and have stated they don't expect brand new but would feel very blessed if any help could be provided to help put the home back together. The family is working with other helping agencies to try to obtain bedding and pillows. They are exhausting all resources including their own to provide a safe home for the children.
