Story

2 Children 2 Adults

A young family with two very children is in need of temporary assistance with food, as their EBT card was siphoned and all of the funds were stolen. (two families I work with had this happen from the same store last week). DSHS is not replacing funds.

Gift cards to grocery stores/ Walmart would be the most helpful. They would be thankful for anything.

This mother has two children in Colorado ages 1 and 12 years old and would like support to be able to attend treatment, appointments, family time and get to work in a timely manner. A Visa giftcard would help this mother get to her appointments and continue with her treatment progress. Thank you for your consideration.

Help Reunify a Bio Family

A determined mother is just steps away from reunifying with her 11 year old son. With a trial home visit set to begin soon, she’s working hard to meet every requirement—but she still needs a few essential items to make their home complete: a washing machine and a dresser.

Thanks to the Fostering Hope Closet, she has already received a twin bed and mattress for her son, along with a donated gas stove—removing two major barriers.

Now, your donation of a gently used or new item can help her take the final steps toward bringing her child home. This support isn’t just practical—it’s a lifeline of hope, stability, and a new beginning for a family on the path to healing.

Alleviate Food/Essentials Insecurity

Please consider helping a single mom and her 2 year old daughter here in our Scottsville community. They are in need of a refrigerator as theirs went out and now they do not have one. This would help them keep cold food instead of just shelf food for meals. This single mom works multiple jobs including an in-home bakery. Appliances are very expensive and finances are tight for her. Not only would this help with their food but it would also help her continue her business and the flow of income.

We have contacted Doug's Maytag in Scottsville and they have a new Amana for $667 or a new Whirlpool for $754. There is a $79 delivery fee and they will remove and dispose of the old one for her.

If you do not have a refrigerator to give, please consider giving financially through Go To Link In the "Give To" section select "Single Mom's Ministry" with a note for "Refrigerator".
