Help Strengthen a Bio Family

Single mother of 2 young children with a baby due in June. She was homeless but was able to move into housing and keep her children with her. She is in need of 2 car seats for her kids, currently she is unable to drive because she cannot afford car seats. She is a great mom that has worked hard to give her kids a new life but now she needs to make sure she is able to transport them safely. Here are the links to the type of car seat she is needing. This car seat will be able to grow with her children so she will not need to keep buying new ones as they grow.

Go To Link

These kids have experienced a hard life, and we would love to see them thrive and feel safe and this is a great start to aid in supporting them. As her family grows getting them around is going to get harder so there is also a need for a double stroller. Here is a link to what she is needing: Go To Link

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

We are requesting summer clothing and essential items for a disabled student who is currently unhoused. Due to his sensory needs, specific types of clothing are requested to help him feel comfortable and confident.

He wears a size 12/14 in clothing and a size 5.5 in shoes. The following items are needed:

Cotton khaki-style knee-length shorts (sensory-friendly material)

Cotton T-shirts and athletic T-shirts (sensory-friendly material)

Ankle slipper socks

Croc-style sandals (brand name not required) Underwear (boxer briefs)

A medium-sized suitcase for his belongings

The clothing and shoes do not need to be brand new but gently used would be great. These items will help provide comfort, and stability as we work to support him during this challenging time.

Thank you so much for considering this need!

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
