A single woman has recently confirmed that she is further along in her pregnancy than she originally thought. She has taken great initiative in establishing prenatal care in the last few weeks after making a brave decision to move forward with her pregnancy. Her initial concerns in delaying care were based on not having medical insurance and feeling overwhelmed by the possibility of high medical bills. She has consistent work, but her income is limited at this point. Though she has connected with her partner and his family and has their support for her next steps, she is focused on gathering larger baby items before her due date in June. She has been consistent in receiving emotional support as she is taking these steps, and we would love to help her to prepare physically for the birth of her little boy this summer. She needs a car seat and stroller combination and a crib. These items are essential as she leaves the hospital after birth and is setting up a safe and comfortable home for her new little one. Thank you so much for coming alongside this new mom as she takes these important steps! Car seat and stroller combination: Go To Link Pack and Play: Go To Link

I am writing with an urgent plea on behalf of a family in dire need of support. The mother and father are currently facing extreme financial hardship and have been unable to find work for some time. Due to their inability to pay their electricity bill, their power and water has been disconnected for over a week now, causing immense distress for the family. This situation is not only affecting their daily living conditions but also their ability to stay connected with their children. Without electricity, they are unable to communicate effectively, which is deeply impacting their family time and emotional well-being. Additionally, both parents require ongoing medical treatments, and the lack of electricity is making it difficult for them to attend these critical appointments. We humbly ask for any assistance in helping them catch up on their electricity bill. Your support would bring immediate relief to a family that is struggling to navigate a difficult and overwhelming situation. Thank you for considering this urgent request. Any help you can offer would make an enormous difference in their lives

A one year old child needs diapers, and wipes. Family is under medium financial stress. Child is a size 6 in diapers, family has asked if they could receive some assistance getting these items.

A family is in need. The grandmother is currently providing for her 3 grandchildren and her own 3 children. Currently the father of the grandchild is incarcerated, and the mother is struggling with substance abuse. The grandmother has stopped working as she could not find childcare for her 3 grandchildren. This family would benefit from the following requested items: 3 twin beds and bedding (2 boys, 1 girl), a kitchen table set, couch, and chair.

Again, we are out of beds with the other recent arrivals and the funds that were normally given to the refugee resettlement agencies being stopped. For these two families again, we need beds (always) and another coffee table.

Glocal has already provided through community donations other furniture that they needed along with household goods. always feel free to inquire more about our programs .

Although it may seem unlikely, we are still seeing families arrive through the refugee process. They come with basically nothing and through Glocal, we provide them new and gently used items donated through the community to help them get started in their first home in the Treasure Valley. We have one large Afghan family of 9 that we have in temporary housing and will move into two apartments in the near future. We are short beds and tables for several families. this request is for the larger family that arrived a few weeks ago. To keep things less costly, they will need to put several children in one room and bunk beds will help. they also could use some coffee tables and end tables. Glocal has been able to provide them with their other needs through earlier donations.

Please if you can help with a gently used bed (clean mattress/box spring) or a table, please reach out!
