Story
A single mother of 2 (ages 1 and 5) is needing assistance in getting a safe, reliable 5-point harness for her 5 year old who has autism. The 5 year old is a very vulnerable child, and does not understand simple safety instructions, such as to not get out of the car. She needs a more secure car seat as she currently only has a booster seat. She has now learned how to get herself out of her booster seat and has been placing herself in dangerous situations, however she is unable to recognize the danger. By helping this mother get this car seat, you are helping to ensure this child gets to every place she needs to be safely. Mother will be able to reuse this item for her 1 year old as well.
This family is also in need of a high chair for the 1 year old. Mother does not have any dining items, such as a table/chairs. While she has made do without that, when she has to feed both children it can be very difficult. Her 5 year old is a very active child. If she has a high chair, she will be able to have a safe place to sit her 1 year old during feeding times while also managing her 5 year old. She is doing this alone, and any help she could get would greatly strengthen this family.
