Request: #231343 • Urgency: High • Demographic: Child-Centered Request • City: New York • State: New York • Zip Code: 10033 • County: New York • Submitted By: School in the Square • Lead Church: Lighthouse Community Church

Story

1 Child 1 Adult

We are requesting support for a resilient and hardworking family who has just moved into their very first apartment. This marks a new beginning after a period of instability, and we hope to help them furnish their new space with the essentials that will make it feel like home.

The family includes a dedicated mother who works part-time and is a huge, integral part of our school community—always giving her time and energy to support students and staff alike. Her child, a student at our school, has an Individualized Education Program (IEP) and has already undergone three or more surgical procedures since birth. Despite these challenges, the family continues to show strength, grace, and a deep commitment to growth. Student is male and will turn 15 this year. Providing family with the following items will allow the student to remain in our school community. While the family does have the keys and access to the apartment, they have not been able to move in fully because they don't have beds.

EDIT: This request is in Zip Code 10473

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

CASA has a case with a 6-year-old girl who was removed from her father after he was found to be using substances and heavily neglecting the child. She was living with bedbugs, many mice, few clothes and little food. She is now placed with a family relative, who is lower income and does not have expendable income. The child has asked to go to the Butterfly Pavilion and the Georgetown Railroad Loop, but this cost is not manageable. CASA is asking for assistance with this want (not a need) by someone providing a Visa gift card near the amount of $215, which can offset the tickets for the child and adults in the household to visit these places. Thank you!

Help Reunify a Bio Family

Two children are placed in Trial Reunification with their mother. They are doing incredible in her home and thriving. She has worked very hard to get them home and continues to work on keeping them home with her. She has struggled with bills recently due to a family member unexpectedly moving out of the home. This left her covering all expenses on her own. She has requested more shifts at work but was told not at this time, and is currently looking into cheaper homes as well. We are requesting assistance with overdue rent and utilities. Her overdue rent is $1,185.00 and her overdue electric bill is $309.56. We understand that is a large sum, any assistance towards that total is appreciated.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

A previous mom we helped some time ago has stated the bed we gave is now worn. A photo was provided to show that. She would appreciate a twin bed for her son (mattress and box springs and rails, or platform frame) and a comforter. This will help her son to get the sleep he needs to be healthy and feel secure.

PLEASE NOTE: RISE CHURCH CAN MEET THIS NEED WITH A BED WE ALREADY HAVE IN OUR INVENTORY. NO FURTHER DONATIONS ARE NEEDED.
