Story
This request is for a car seat for a child that is 40-60 pounds to support a kinship placement. The grandmother of this child has just recently taken over the sole care of her grandson and granddaughter (newborn). Her grandson has autism and she has already raised money to pay for the registration fee into his special needs day program. She raised $650 by making dinner plates for people to buy out of her own home. Her grandkids health and safety means everything to her and she is working so hard to maintain that. She is also working toward her license to be an in-home childcare provider to not only be more equipped to care for her grandchildren but to also be able to provide care for other children in her community. Despite being a cancer survivor and faced with losing her job and other financial hardships, this one woman has remained so positive and so full of light for the little ones she cares so much about.
Specific Needs:
- One car seat for a child weighing 40-60 pounds
- Food/Groceries to help them stay afloat as they face this family transition
