A family we've been involved with recently has faced a number of hardships and have now found themselves without car seats to safely transport their children. The vehicle the father was driving at the time contained two car seats and the vehicle was in an accident and totaled. Therefore, the car seats are no longer considered safe and need to be replaced. The vehicle was not in the father's name and the insurance won't be able to pay to replace the car seats. The family needs a booster and a 5 point harness car seat.

A community serving agency is in need of support for assisting in keeping families safe, when home is no longer safe, typically due to domestic violence situations. Often it is a quick decision that has to be made immediately, often late at night and when most shelters are full. I would love to prepare them for when things do happen, they are ready and have some support. Thanks in advance for helping!!

One of our foster families is in need of someone to fix a retaining wall. Please reach out if you have the skills and ability to do this!

We recently became involved with a family and their 3 children after the father unexpectedly passed away. The mother is now trying to fix her home on her own but is struggling with resources to get the materials needed. She has her father who will help her with the physical work itself, but is needing assistance on getting materials. The trailer had a leak that ruined their subflooring and it is currently unsafe for the children to walk on. The leak also caused black mold so parts of the walls had to be removed so those are needing replaced as well. We’re hoping that a gift card for either Lowes or Home Depot could be provided so that mom can get her kids back into their home and back to some normalcy after losing their father.

We are reaching out in help for a first grade female student who is in need of clothing for the summer. Her dad is single, and recently stopped working and has 2 other children, but can not support them all. The student is experiencing the need for hair ties, a hairbrush, bathing suit, tops, pants, shorts, and any other everyday wear. She likes clothes that fit her well, as opposed to oversized. We can create a target wish list, and the items can be shipped to Agape, where we will then ensure she goes home with each clothing item, or we accept donations through the Agape Youth and Family website. Any help would be deeply appreciated as they navigate this difficult period.

The caregiver is in desperate need for a crib and mattress. Caregiver needs crib sheets. Caregiver needs size 1 diapers, wipes, baby bottles, and size 6 to 9 month clothes. Caregiver needs a highchair and a stroller to help with feeding and taking the child places.

A devoted mother of two young boys, aged 3 and 2, is navigating the extraordinary challenges of parenting a medically fragile child while juggling a full-time job an hour from home. Although her heart is filled with love and attention for her sons, the demands of her daily life leave little room for her passion for cooking.

To make mealtime easier and more enjoyable, she believes that an air fryer and a crock pot would be invaluable tools, enabling her to prepare nourishing meals even on her most exhausting days. Additionally, she is in need of clothing and shoes for her boys, who are in sizes 3T and 2T, as well as some pillowcases for the home.

This incredible mom remains deeply appreciative of any assistance that can help strengthen her family and bring a bit of comfort to their lives. Your support could make a world of difference!

One of our foster families is in need of help catching up on yard work. They're requesting help with weeds, gutters, and pressure washing. If you'd love to help with all or some of this, it would be a huge blessing!

Mother expecting 2nd child on 5/23. This child’s father is not involved, although has support from 1st child FOB. Both unemployed and without finances to put towards listed items. This mother was recently enrolled in our program for her 2nd child, although we did have her 5 years ago when her 1st child was born. Since our initial enrollment, this mother has shown much growth in her recovery and mental health. We have provided other resources in the community, although family has not been successful in obtaining these items. Any assistance available would be beneficial to this family- thank you!
