Request: #231546 • Urgency: Normal • Demographic: Child-Centered Request • City: Dayton • State: Ohio • Zip Code: 45439 • County: Montgomery • Submitted By: Montgomery County JFS

Story

•
2 Children 1 Adult

We are working with a relative caregiver that is willing to provide care for two teenage boys when she already has five children in her home. There are a total of eight people in the home. Our relative caregiver works and has financial means to provide care but her income is very stretched with the new addition. She doesn't want to see the boys go into a group home so she has stepped up to care for them. Our relative care giver is in need of a bunk bed set for the boys. She's in a four bedroom home but with eight people in the home there's not a lot of space for two separate beds. The bunk bed is her main need but asked if there was a donated dresser for the boys, that would be very helpful as well.

Help Reunify a Bio Family

The mother was able to secure a residence in Plant City close to her employer at that time. Her budget at the time indicated that she would be able to afford rent and expenses. However, in the wake of the back-to-back hurricanes in the Fall 2024, The mother was laid off. She was able to find stable employment in Tampa and reunited with her children in March 2025. However, her current income is insufficient to meet the needs to maintain the residence (which the landlord refuses to make repairs to) and cover the costs of transportation to her place of employment. The mother and the case manager have reached out to multiple community resources (Metropolitan Ministries, Catholic Charities, City of Plant City, etc.) but have been told that financial assistance is not available due to it being the end of the fiscal year. A FUP referral to Tampa Housing Authority has been made, but a decision has not yet been made. The mother worked hard to regain custody of her children but has been struggling especially since she does not receive child support from the father of the children.

Help Assist a Victim of Domestic Violence

Single mother (who Emmaus members have been walking alongside) escaping domestic violence from husband along with two kids under the age of 7 years. She is starting over from scratch as they left the house with nothing and has no extended family support. She would like to have a car which would provide transportation so she can get a job so that she can get into housing. We are hoping to provide $3,000 towards a vehicle.

If you have any connections to help with housing or a job (she doesn't have childcare so maybe a daycare center, work from home, etc) please respond to this request or reach out to Julie-Anne or Kandilyn Ford.

Thank you for offering support and prayer for this family!
