Mom is out of work to stay home with kids while husband works. Trying to go to school but doesn't have childcare. Having a high chair would help the family to instead use that money towards food. The high chair would allow the child to sit safely to eat food. RISE CHURCH ALREADY HAS A HIGH CHAIR IN OUR INVENTORY, SO WE ARE NOT NEEDING ANY ADDITIONAL DONATIONS FOR THIS ONE. Thank you.

We have a single mother who is engaged in an intensive voluntary DHS case. She has been looking for employment. She found a job and was given a provisional job offer, but she needs a laptop and a printer. Client is only open to a new laptop, as she wants to ensure reliability for work and that it doesn't have any one else's personal information is on the laptop. She is open to a used printer. Walmart has windows laptops starting around $200. Wireless printers are about $55. Please be aware many newer models of laptops do not have USB ports, so a wireless printer may be needed. Client has looked into community resources and unfortunately, many grants have ended and therefore there are not programs available. The mother would like to accept the job offer by 5/14/25. So, this is a urgent need.

A mother of three (boys 6 and 4, girl 3) is unemployed and cannot keep her phone turned on. She cannot stay in touch with her treatment providers and is unable to communicate with her family time supervisor. This is impacting her ability to find better work, stay engaged with her children, and work towards reunification. A phone card would be so helpful to this mom and would help her stay on top of changing schedules and reunite her family. Thank you for your generosity!

A group home for boys in foster care is in need of some dishes. Over time the dishes break or get lost and they are down to very few. They have decided it would be best to get dishes that are microwaveable and dishwasher safe. They would also like each child to have their own color so they can learn to take care of their dishes by setting the table, cleaning up their own mess and washing their dishes. Life skills are such an important part of what they teach the boys in the home. They have found some dishes on the WROVA website they would like to have. Please feel free to look them up on the website or make a donation and they can order them. Any help is appreciated!

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!

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!

Mom is in need of two window air conditioner units for her apartment. Currently, the children are not able to sleep in their rooms because of the temperature (either too hot in the summer or no heat in the winter). Mom also needs a twin size mattress for a bedframe that she has for her daughter.
