I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to kindly request support in acquiring a small stand-up refrigerator for the community pantry I oversee. Our pantry serves as a vital resource for many residents, and we strive to provide not only shelf-stable items but also fresh, nutritious options. Unfortunately, without proper refrigeration, we are currently limited in our ability to offer perishable foods like fresh fruits and vegetables—items that are both highly requested and essential to a balanced diet. A small refrigerator (as we do not have a lot of space to work with) would allow us to accept and safely store produce donations, reduce waste, and increase access to healthier food choices for individuals and families who rely on our services. This addition would greatly enhance our ability to support the well-being of the community in a more sustainable and impactful way. Thank you for considering this request. Please let me know if you need any additional information. I would be happy to provide details or coordinate further.

Special Instructions

I am mostly free in the mornings but can move my schedule around.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

I am working with a single mother who is raising her two young children—a 4-year-old and a 10-month-old—entirely on her own. Despite significant financial hardship and limited support, she is doing everything possible to provide her children a safe and stable home.

Recently, the family was devastated by a severe scabies infestation that has affected both the mother and her children. To stop the spread and protect her kids’ health, she has already thrown out her only sofa and is preparing to discard all of the mattresses in the home. As a result, she and the children will be without proper beds or furniture, and facing long nights with the 4-year-old and baby sleeping on blow-up camping pads, while the mother resorts to sleeping upright in a chair. The mother also needs bleach and Lysol to help contain the infestation. This mother has shown extraordinary determination to protect her children from harm and to restore a clean and livable home, even when it means sacrificing her comfort. With your support, we can help this family get back on their feet and ensure that these two young children have safe, clean places to sleep and play—essentials that every child deserves.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

We would like assistance with a single mother who has three children, 11. 8 and 5 years old. She has been the victim of a fire in her last residence, which has lett her with pretty much nothing. She is working, and is residing currently in Waxahachie Housing Aurhority. She needs two complete twin beds for her two daughers. She really would love a church to walk alongside her. She needs love and support right now, as she tries to get her life together for her and her children. If you can help, you would be making a huge difference in this mother's life.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

WPS support employee and her Senior son lost their home 2 weeks ago in a fire. They lost everything! WPS has rallied to lend $$$ support that has enabled them to seek a rental - while working on things with their homeowners insurance. They got notice today that the rental is available tomorrow - May 10!!!!!

In visiting with mom and son last week about Care Portal specifically the mom began to cry tears of joy! I was not sure they would reach out for support - as they are so proud and very hard working. BUT they did!!!

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

A family who just reunify back together into their new apartment just dropped and broke their television. They are in need of a new one, hopefully something between 48-55in TV. They share their bonding time together by watching their favorite movie and would like that bond to continue. SW: Luke Fleming

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

An expectant mother is in need of basic items for a newborn due later this month (May). The mother's community health coach requested an infant car seat, diapers, wipes. These items will allow the child safe transport and will supply the baby's diapering needs for a few weeks. We still need funds for the CARSEAT, WIPES, and DIAPERS. You may click, "Yes, I Can Help!" if you would like to donate any amount of funds so we can purchase the items. Just type in the amount you'd like to contribute. Or, you can contact Oni if you would like to provide the items -- diapers (newborn). Thank you!

Help Make a Foster Care Placement

We are celebrating Foster Care Awareness / Appreciation month by hosting a FREE POOL PARTY at River Country Water Parks in Muskogee Oklahoma. We will be inviting current foster and adoptive families from 10+ counties surrounding the Muskogee area to attend. In addition to the pool party, we will be offering information to families of local resources and churches that they can connect with as well as dates for summer activities for VBS and children / youth camps that churches are participating in and inviting children to come to.

The party will be Saturday, May 31st from 6:30-8:30pm with capacity being roughly 700-800 individuals. We will have an RSVP process for the families. We are asking for our networking churches to contribute to the cost of renting the water facility out - $1,200. Any amount helps! If you have questions, please reach out to your community coordinator or 111project East Central OK Regional Manager - Jason Grewe

Alleviate Food/Essentials Insecurity

A church member has a college student, at New River Community College, in a class that is currently homeless along with his father. His father broke both his arms in a work accident due to faulty equipment. Since he is unable to work and the company has put a hold on workers compensation until July they are in need of assistance. The father is unable to work at least until he has surgery on both arms. Their current needs are food and gas for him to get back and forth to work and school. They have temporary housing with family but will need assistance with this need in the near future. If you can help or have any questions you can reach out to Austin Phillips.

Help Prevent a Child From Entering Foster Care

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!
