Story

•
3 Children 2 Adults

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 Make a Kinship Placement

A loving and dedicated grandmother is doing her best to care for her 10-year-old granddaughter and 7-year-old grandson. Despite the financial challenges she faces, her love for them is unwavering. She is seeking support to provide the children with the school supplies they need, such as notebook paper, pencils, pens, crayons, markers, erasers, posters, glue, and tape—so they can start the school year with confidence. This small act of kindness would help relieve some of the financial pressure on this grandmother and ensure the children have the essentials they deserve. Additionally, the children would greatly benefit from clothing support, whether through gift cards or access to free clothing, to help them feel ready for the school year ahead.

Help Preserve a Foster Care Placement

A two-year old foster child who is a bright and active toddler has faced early life challenges and is currently adjusting. Recently, he has developed a habit of removing his clothes and diaper during the night, which has led to frequent messes, disrupted sleep, and increased stress for the foster parent. Despite consistent bedtime routines and various interventions, the behavior continues and has made overnight care difficult. Adaptive clothing designed with rear zippers or secure closures can prevent the child from undressing during the night, helping to maintain hygiene, reduce overnight clean ups, and support better sleep for both the child and foster parent.

The child is male size 2T. An example of adaptive clothing can be found at this website Go To Linkpany/

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

A devoted and loving grandmother is doing her best to care for her 10-year-old granddaughter and 7-year-old grandson. Despite facing significant financial hardship, she remains focused on providing a safe and nurturing home for them. With tick season quickly approaching, she’s deeply concerned about the health and safety of her grandchildren. Tall grass not only invites insects but also increases the risk of tick-borne illnesses like Lyme disease.

Due to a cervical spine injury sustained while working in 2025, her mobility has become limited, and she's now living on a fixed income. Unfortunately, she’s unable to afford regular lawn care and cannot safely manage the yard herself.

She would be incredibly grateful for a working lawnmower—new or gently used—so she can keep her yard maintained and her grandchildren safe. Any support would make a meaningful difference in their lives.

Help Improve an Adult’s Well-Being

A member of Doxa shared a request where they would benefit in having another bed since they assist their neighbor kids while their mom works doubles to make ends meet. Having a bed will allow her to serve the kids in having their own space when they spend the evenings over.

I placed Full/Double, but if you have a twin that works too. Let me know if you have any of the items or want to contribute. Kayley and myself, Nikolai, would be the contact person and I can handle PU and drop off of these items. Thanks y’all!

Help Make a Foster Care Placement

We are in urgent need of funding to purchase two mattresses (we highly recommend with waterproof covers) for a foster family who is working to get siblings placed in their home. As part of the placement transition, they will be hosting the children for some overnight visits soon and they have worked to purchase beds for their home. As a result, they are asking for help in purchasing the mattresses to put on the beds due to the sudden financial strain. These kids will be looking to make this home a permanent placement, so these items would be for use long into the future. If you can support this family from our own church in some (or all!) of these items, please donate now. If you have bedding items available that you can donate, please mention that. We would like to purchase the mattresses brand new. Thank you for your consideration and support!

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.
