Help Strengthen a Bio Family

This single mom in our program has twins who just celebrated their birthday. She recently started a new job but is still unable to afford a gift that is both meaningful and educational, which is something she truly wants for her children. While she is doing everything she can to provide for their basic necessities, things like birthday presents are difficult for her to budget for. Your support in helping her purchase a special gift for her twins would mean the world to her and would bring joy to her children on their special day.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

Recently, we encountered a situation involving a young child who was sheltered from his mother. A compassionate non-relative has stepped forward to provide care for this four-year-old boy. This caregiver already has several children of her own, each with their own special needs, yet she has graciously agreed to take in this child. Currently, she is in need of a car seat and a trundle bunk bed, as the child is sharing a bedroom with her biological child, which can only accommodate a bunk bed. At present, the caregiver is not receiving any financial assistance but is actively pursuing the licensing process. Any support in providing these items would be greatly appreciated.

Note: This caregiver was able to obtain the bedframe. At this time, she is only requesting the mattress.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

I am working with a hard-working, single mom of three children ages 11, 3, and 1. Recently the engine blew in her car which is her only means of transportation. She is looking for another car. Currently she is in school, training to be a hairdresser. If she is unable to find transportation to school, she will lose her spot in the class, and she is just a few months away from graduating. She needs $4,000 - $5,000 to purchase a used car. Alternately, she is willing to accept a used car in good condition.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

A previous mom we helped some time ago has stated the bed we gave is now worn. A photo was provided to show that. She would appreciate a twin bed for her son (mattress and box springs and rails, or platform frame) and a comforter. This will help her son to get the sleep he needs to be healthy and feel secure.

PLEASE NOTE: RISE CHURCH CAN MEET THIS NEED WITH A BED WE ALREADY HAVE IN OUR INVENTORY. NO FURTHER DONATIONS ARE NEEDED.
