Help Strengthen a Bio Family

EVERY CHILD DESERVES A BED TO SLEEP IN, A TABLE TO GATHER AROUND, AND A COUCH TO RELAX ON. TOGETHER, WE CAN MAKE THIS A REALITY. A single mother of nine children is facing unimaginable challenges and is desperately in need of support. Despite limited resources, she works tirelessly to provide for her children, yet the situation has become overwhelming. Right now, all of her children are sleeping on the floor due to a lack of beds, and they have no place to relax as a family. The children have resorted to selling candy outside stores and restaurants just to help meet their basic needs—a heartbreaking reality for young kids who should be focusing on their studies and playing.

This family is doing everything they can to survive, but they need help. Providing beds, a dining table, and a couch would bring a sense of comfort and stability back into their lives. These basic items would give them a chance to rest, eat together, and feel safe—something every child deserves.

Your generosity can make a lasting impact. With your support, we can give this hardworking mother and her children the comfort and security they’ve been missing. Let’s help them rebuild their home, restore their hope, and offer them the love and support they need.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

A single mother with 3 children will give birth to her 4th child in two weeks. This young woman has very little relational support in her life at this time and no family. Because her youngest child is well out of his baby years, this mama does not have many baby supplies and is still in need of a travel system. Having this larger cost item covered would allow her to transport the baby safely to appointments and outings, as well as allow her sparse income to go towards essentials like rent and groceries, ensuring she doesn't have to choose between feeding or housing her family. We ask for new items. Thank you for helping this mama by showing her God’s love through His family! Travel System: Go To Link

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

Every child deserves a safe and comfortable place to sleep—especially during visits with a parent they’re working to reconnect with. Right now, we’re helping a teenage boy who visits his mother on weekends as part of their reunification process. While he looks forward to seeing her, he has no bed to sleep on during his stay and ends up spending the night on the floor. A simple queen-size air mattress would give him the rest, comfort, and dignity every young person deserves. Your donation or purchase of an air mattress can make a real difference in helping this teen feel at home, even when home is still being rebuilt. Support with delivery of the item would be very helpful OR we are more than happy to pick it up!

Hello all, I am hoping you can help a very dear family. They are 5 adults and 2 children, living in a household that are looking for rental assistance. The family had to leave a previous location due to being uninhabitable, and the previous landlord did not correct the issues. The family has exhausted other resources by staying with other family members and was even homeless for a day. The family was able to obtain a They were able to find a place to stay, but are in need of deposit for the rental by this Saturday (2 days from now). The deposit is $1500. The family is unable to come up with the deposit due to fixing their vehichle which is their only mean for transportation, allowing them to work. Meeting this immediate need for this family will allow them to maintain shelter.

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!
