Help Strengthen a Bio Family

We are a loving family of six, comprised of four wonderful girls aged 7, twins aged 12, and a vibrant 16-year-old. Recently reunited with their forever home after foster care, the twins need special support to ensure their transition is as smooth as possible.

We are seeking pull-ups in size 5T/6T and some regular children’s underwear to keep our little ones comfortable. Clothing and food assistance would greatly benefit our family during this time.

Given that the twins are medically fragile, a sturdy wagon would be a wonderful help for taking all the children on joyful walks with their parents. Lastly, if possible, we are hoping to acquire medical equipment like feeding tube holders to ensure the twins receive the care they need. Your generosity would mean the world to us as we navigate this journey together. Thank you for considering our family's needs!

Mom is in need of assistance with her FPL bill. Although her past due balance amount is $678.78, she will appreciate if at least $384.80 can be paid, preventing the electricity to get shut off again. Mom also does not have transportation since the childs father is no longer in the home. She would benefit from a bus pass so she can have reliable transportation.

Support an Expecting Mom and Her Unborn Baby

An expecting mom-to-be due in June and her partner are in need of a car seat/stroller combo and bassinet to help prepare for their first child. The client is currently receiving free professional counseling through Caris' C25 (Conception to Age 5) Program to navigate the complexities surrounding unplanned pregnancy. Caris will continue to journey with the client and her family until the child's fifth birthday, offering professional counseling and a grace-filled, judgment-free community of support. The client will receive other essential items such as diapers, wipes, clothing, and toiletries for herself and her child through Caris' Essentials Boutique, but is in need of these "bigger ticket" items to fully prepare for new motherhood. Receiving these items will help the client and her partner feel empowered to care for their child with dignity, grace, and love!

Client has provided Amazon links for requested items, but is more than happy to receive similar items! Bassinet Links: Go To Link Go To Link Car Seat/Stroller Combination Links: Go To Link Go To Link

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".
