Story

•
2 Children 2 Adults

This kinship family would like to send the two teenagers in the home to church camp this summer. This camp offers a week long camp near the family's home where the teenagers could go for some encouragement and fun. The children have been through a lot this year and have recently started to act out. The foster parents feel it would be beneficial for the teens to be around their peers in a Christian environment.

Help Reunify a Bio Family

One of our foster homes is a kinship caregiver who opened her home to care for three of her nephews who are in foster care. Our foster parent is a beautiful partner with her sister in caring for her children while in foster care and also supporting her sister's parental capacity and stability. Due to this partnership and Mom's diligent work on her case plan, we are preparing to return her son to her home. She is making progress on her case plan and has just begun overnight visits, with the goal of achieving reunification before the end of the summer. This mom has 5 kids who are currently in three different placements, and Mom is doing everything she can to reunite them, including driving round-trip from Macon to Loganville twice a week for visits. She has expressed that she needs a bunk bed for the room of two of her younger kids. Thank you for considering helping with this need! Go To Link

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

A Kinship foster home has had placement of 13 boy since January. The family is being evicted from their current residence and is having to move out by June 1st. The family has secured an apartment at Brookwood Village Apartments but $305 security deposit is required up front. This sudden move is unexpected so the family is not financially prepared for this move. Helping with the security deposit will secure that the 13 year old child remains placed with the kinship family. No other Kinship options are available so the child would most likely end up at a Shelter if this apartment cannot be secured this week.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

CASA has a case with two younger children who were removed from parents after the youngest child was born exposed to meth and fentanyl. The children have been placed with a relative who has a very limited budget. The youngest child has outgrown her baby car seat and would benefit greatly from a convertible car seat. The caregiver has many appointments to take the children to and could also use assistance with a gift card for gas (to Maverik, King Sooper gas, Conoco, etc.). The items can be bought online and shipped to CASA if that is most convenient. Thank you for considering helping with this request! Go To Link

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

A young family from Afghanistan arrived in Holland a few months ago and is in need of support. While the dad speaks a few phrases in English, they primarily speak Pashto and have 4 children (plus one more on the way due in August). Their 10 year old son is currently enrolled at an elementary school on the northside of Holland. The younger siblings are a 5 year old boy and two girls aged 4 and 6 months. The father worked for the US Military in Afghanistan for 15 years before coming to Lansing with his family in 2021. He worked in a car factory in Lansing, but decided to come to Holland to be closer to friends when his family lost housing. The father is still searching for local employment, but is able to drive his own small car. They have borrowed funds for rent the past few months, but are running out of options. Any help would be a gift as we search for more sustainable income for their family!

Movement West Michigan has been made aware of the needs of this family and are working with multiple local agencies and churches to coordinate immediate support as they work toward long-term stability.

Help Maintain Work Transportation

When hardship hits, we turn to our church family. A dedicated single mom of 4, who also cares for a young adult who has aged out of the foster care system, needs our help. She works full-time as a home health aide driving up to 70 miles a day to care for her clients, part of what she does is taking them to appointments, and picking up prescriptions and groceries. She also drives her kids to school daily. One afternoon, after school pickup, she was hit by a driver who fled the scene. Thankfully, she and the kids were unharmed, but her car was badly damaged and had to be towed. With no backup vehicle, she’s rented a car for 3 weeks to keep working and caring for her family but she can’t afford to keep renting a car. To keep insurance affordable, she has a high deductible. She’s saved $600 but still needs $1,400 to get her car out of the body shop this week. The body shop won’t accept payments, and the charities she contacted don’t cover this type of need. The children’s father is not involved or supportive. Church family, let’s come together and help this hardworking mom and her kids get their car back. No gift is too small. Please select “Fund” when donating. Every dollar makes a difference!

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

127 Place received a request from a member of a local church for a mom with three pre-school-age kids who are living in a motel. This family is from out-of-town looking for safety and a new life. They have no family support. They were just approved for an apartment with a move-in date of June 1, but they need help with deposits.

Mom started a job recently and has raised about half of the deposits. 127 Place is committing $500, but that leaves about $400 still needed for the deposits.

They do have beds, but nothing else, so 127 Place will also be working to provide other essentials for them to get started in their apartment. If you would like to help with donations for this family, please contact me by email ******@email.com or by text,(###) ###-####.
