This family consists of a single mother of 3 children. The family consists of two girls and 1 boy ranging from 7-9 years old. The family recently moved into a new home to ensure the safety and stability of the children. They have exhausted community resources in obtaining items to furnish the home and were able to obtain 3 twin bed frames for all 3 of the children but are still in need of 3 twin mattresses for the children.

A single mother from Pickerington reached out for help with her South Central Power bill in the amount of $409.50. Her electricity was originally scheduled for disconnection on May 5, but she was able to negotiate an extension until the end of business today. This mother is raising her 13-year-old daughter on her own and lives paycheck to paycheck. She shared that she has been dealing with intermittent illness but is scheduled to return to work next week. Despite working full-time, her monthly income is not enough to cover her rent. She has an appointment with the Pickerington Food Pantry for additional support and mentioned that she called 2-1-1 and was advised to reach out to local churches. (Wes, I’m not sure if that information is accurate.) At our suggestion, she contacted South Central to find out the minimum payment required to prevent disconnection, which turned out to be $215.25. Grace Fellowship has already covered that amount today. However, there is still a remaining balance of $194.25 She also mentioned that she’s actively looking for a part-time job to supplement her full-time income and is seeking shift work. Given the situation, I will be submitting a request through the IFP portal. Since Grace Fellowship has already contributed $215.25, I am reaching out to see if any of the other churches in our network would be willing to assist with the remaining balance of $194.25.

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!

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!
