Story

•
1 Child 2 Adults

I am working with a set of grandparents who have legal custody of their grandson who is 8 years old. They need financial assistance for summer day camp. The grandfather and grandmother both works outside of the home and can generally meet the family's basic needs. However, they need someone to watch their grandson while he is out of school this summer. The grandson goes to a private school and the school is offering summer day camp. The grandparents want the grandson to participate at this particular day camp to keep the consistency since he already knows the staff and other children. The grandson has been diagnosed on the Autism Spectrum and change is hard for him. The grandparents looked into other financial resources, but they were denied because they were slightly over-income. Please consider helping this family with this need. Thank you!

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

A single mother of two is currently in need of kitchen shelving and two dressers for her children. These items would make a significant difference in their daily lives. With proper shelving in the kitchen, she would be able to organize food and cooking essentials more efficiently, creating a safer and more functional space for her family. The dressers would give her children a place to store their clothes and belongings, helping them feel more settled and at home. This support would mean so much to this family, providing not just furniture, but also a sense of stability and comfort during a challenging time.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

This client has been incredibly faithful in attending parenting classes at our resource center. She did not ask for help fixing up her camper but has been sharing with me the past couple of weeks all of the projects that she is hoping to complete this summer, before winter comes. Her earnings are extremely limited. She is recently separated from her husband, and they are working towards reconciliation and doing things in a new and healthy manner. She works incredibly hard being a mom and help those with mental health care. New and non-leaking skylights in her RV would provide natural day light for her home and be a tremendous blessing for her and her daughter. She is thrilled at the prospect of getting possible assistance with all of her many projects needing to be done on her RV to make it more livable and comfortable.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

The roof of my client's RV home is leaking. She would like to completely repair the entire roof, including putting in new plywood to ensure the job is done properly and will last a very long time. She is an amazing mom who works very hard, engages faithfully in parenting classes, and does all she can to improve and enhance her home life.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

This request is made in support of maintaining the stability of a kinship placement involving a one-year-old boy who was recently placed with a relative caregiver. The caregiver is doing everything she can to provide a safe and nurturing home for the child. However, she is currently living in reduced-income housing and has recently given birth, both of which have placed additional strain on her resources. At this time, she would greatly benefit from assistance with essential childcare supplies—specifically, size 5 diapers (preferably Luvs or Pampers, if available) and unscented baby wipes. Any support in providing these items would be deeply appreciated and would contribute significantly to the continued stability and success of this placement. Thank you for your time and consideration. God bless!

Stabilize Housing Insecurity

After 25 years of faithfully serving students and teachers in Orange County, one of our longtime Saddleback Church members is now facing the heartbreaking reality of potential homelessness. She is a compassionate, devoted college professor and mentor with a clear anointing on her life. Due to a sharp decline in student teacher enrollment, her income has been drastically reduced. Yesterday, she received a 3-day pay-or-quit notice and urgently needs $900 in rental assistance to avoid becoming homeless by this Friday. Next month she will begin receiving income from new jobs and expects to cover her rent going forward. However, she needs support to make it through May. She is single woman who lost her only child years ago; she has no family to turn to only her church family. With a Doctorate and Master’s in Education and a BS in Mathematics, she has dedicated her life to mentoring future teachers and guiding students in challenging STEM subjects. Her mission has always been to help students discover their God-given talents and pursue meaningful careers. Since 2012, she has also served faithfully in several Saddleback ministries. As National Teacher Appreciation Week comes to a close, let’s show support and gratitude to this sister in Christ who has poured so much into others. Your support can prevent her from becoming homeless and allow her to continue the work God has called her to do. Please select “FUND” when donating. Thank you for your generosity.

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!

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

I am advocating for a mom of 2 who has had a stroke paralyzing her left side. While ordering a wheelchair for her, we discovered she is sleeping on a mattress on the floor. This mom has had three back surgeries and needs her bed high enough to be comfortably transferred in and out of bed and to be able to rest well. She is very humble and grateful for any help she may receive.
