Request: #229413 • Urgency: Normal • Demographic: Child-Centered Request • City: Grand Junction • State: Colorado • Zip Code: 81504 • County: Mesa • Submitted By: CO-Mesa County DHS • Lead Church: Central Orchard Mesa Community Church

Story

•
1 Child 1 Adult

I have a single mother of 5 year old little girl who is looking for a dining room table so they can eat dinner there together along with allowing her daughter to be able to sit comfortably to do arts and crafts. The current dining room table she has only has one chair that is useable to sit on and this prevents mom having a place to sit with her daughter.

Mom is opened to used dining room tables, but she has found one for $70 plus taxes and shipping (39.99 for shipping) on Walmart.com that could be beneficial since it is a bench style dining room table, and the benches can fit underneath the table completely. This will help provide more room for her and her daughter in their small apartment.

Help Preserve a Foster Care Placement

This request is part of the Bundles of Hope initiative. Unique Therapy is working closely with this caregiver who is doing their best to provide a safe and nurturing environment for their little one. This family is caring for a child under the age of 2 and the child is in need of size 1 diapers and wipes. Due to financial constraints, many caregivers struggle to regularly access diapers, despite them being a basic necessity for infants and young children, so your support would mean a great deal to this family. Would you consider stepping in to meet this need? A simple gift of diapers and wipes can ease a real burden and remind this caregiver they are seen and supported. Your response sends a powerful message: You are not alone. Your community cares.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

I am reaching out today with a heartfelt request on behalf of a very special 2nd grade student in need of support. This young boy is 8 years old and has special needs. He is being raised by his father, who is a dedicated single parent doing his best to provide for his son. As the warmer months approach, they are in need of assistance with summer clothing. Specifically, the child could use: Shorts and T-shirts in size 5–6T, Tennis shoes in size 12 (children’s), T-shirts in child’s small or extra small

Any new or gently used items would be such a blessing to this family. They are not asking for much—just the basics to help this little boy feel comfortable, confident, and cared for during the summer season.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

This request is being made on behalf of a single mother of four children who were scheduled to move into an apartment complex in mid-April. When moving in, the family noted a foul odor throughout the apartment and discovered large areas of the carpeting covered in animal urine. After pulling up the carpeting and padding, it appears that large portions of the carpet, padding, and subfloor are stained by urine and possible mold to the degree that Stanley Steamer declined to clean the carpeting. The apartment complex has refused to replace the carpet and padding and has told the family they can pay to replace the carpet or they can have their security deposit and rent already paid back. The family has no other place to live, must be out of the current home on May 31, and has an exemplary record of past tenancy in our community.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

This devoted great-aunt and primary caregiver to her two great-nieces, ages 12 and 8, and her nephew, age 10. In 2020, Aunt was awarded legal custody of the children after they were removed from their mother's care. Since then, she has provided them with a stable, loving home environment where they feel safe and cared for. Recently, Aunt’s refrigerator ceased functioning, and despite her best efforts to maintain perishable items at a safe temperature, she is struggling to provide the children with well-balanced meals. As a loving, family-oriented individual, she is committed to ensuring they have what they need, but this unexpected challenge has placed additional strain on her resources. We are seeking assistance in obtaining a new refrigerator to support Aunt in her caregiving role. Any help or guidance you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for considering this request and for your continued support of families in need. Warm regards

Help Assist a Victim of Domestic Violence

Single mother (who Emmaus members have been walking alongside) escaping domestic violence from husband along with two kids under the age of 7 years. She is starting over from scratch as they left the house with nothing and has no extended family support. She would like to have a car which would provide transportation so she can get a job so that she can get into housing. We are hoping to provide $3,000 towards a vehicle.

If you have any connections to help with housing or a job (she doesn't have childcare so maybe a daycare center, work from home, etc) please respond to this request or reach out to Julie-Anne or Kandilyn Ford.

Thank you for offering support and prayer for this family!
