Greetings, I am reaching out on behalf of one of my wonderful foster children. I humbly request your support in assisting a full-size bed, mattress and bedding for a child in our community who is in need of an upgraded bed now that she is getting bigger and is growing out of her current space. If you are able to contribute, your generosity will make a significant difference. Thank you for considering this request.

I can help with this request! I already have the frame and mattress and some brand new full bedding that is a minty green. I don't have pillows and if the child wants a different set, I can use the funds to purchase those things. I can deliver the items as early as Wednesday I think.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

A mother, who's two children ( a boy, age 7 and a girl, age 1) is struggling financially at this time. Her children are placed in a kin-like home in Colorado Springs. Mom recently completed 30 days in rehab and is now trying to find work. She is very stressed about food insecurities and has days that she can only eat one meal a day. Mom would also like to be able to bring food to visits with the children, but does not have the means to do so at this time. A $250 walmart card or King Soopers card would allow her to get groceries for a couple of weeks while she continues her search for employment. This would be a big blessing in her life if it was granted. Thank you so much for considering!

Help Prevent a Child From Entering Foster Care

I work with clients who are currently navigating open investigations that have not yet entered the system. One of my clients is a pregnant woman who is focused on ensuring a healthy start for her unborn child and preventing her unborn child from entering the system. She has recently found a small apartment. However, she is starting from scratch, facing the challenge of furnishing this new space with no belongings of her own. Providing her with assistance to acquire essential furniture and household items would not only help create a comfortable and safe place for her child but also empower her to build a stable environment where her family can thrive and grow together. Thank you for taking the time to read this . Hope to hear from someone soon. God bless!!

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

The affected family is a five-member family that shares ICWA tribes and includes three young children, a mother, and a father. They were placed in foster care because of the condition of the house, which included new flooring due to pipe issues being clogged up and damaging the floors.. Any aid from people, organizations, or churches in offering free flooring services or helping to cover the cost would be greatly appreciated, as parents are unable to pay for the estimate quotes.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

I would like to say “thank you” on behalf of my family. Whatever you can do will be greatly appreciated. I know that this is a temporary situation because I will be back in the workforce as soon as we get the support we need to get going. My story is long, but I will make it as concise as possible. When I got married to my wife, she had a boy, whom I love dearly. He is on the autism spectrum. I bring him up because everything that is going on is hardest on him. I had a job selling cars, and I made many sales, but what was promised was not paid. I lost several months giving my all to a job that did not cover my bills. I got a new job driving a school bus. At that time, we were living in my father’s house. That’s when the twins arrived. This was too much for him. He was always in a bad mood. His temper always got the better of him. We were afraid for the babies. M and J were afraid to be there when I wasn’t there, and I was afraid for them. One night he just cam in to the room screaming at my wife saying what s going on since the babies were crying and Meghan was getting frustrated with the babies he seemed like he was ready to hit one of us how angry he seemed .at the the time we were holding the babies I had to make a hard decision to keep my family safe cause it would of just gotten worse. We left to stay at a friend’s house, where we are now....but we have to leave very soon. Now we have no income and no savings. Thank you again for listening and all of your help.
