Request: #232102 • Urgency: Normal • Demographic: Child-Centered Request • City: Largo • State: Florida • Zip Code: 33773 • County: Pinellas • Submitted By: OCS-HOPE FL-Suncoast • Lead Church: St. Timothy Catholic Church

Story

•
1 Child 1 Adult

A single mother of a 5-year-old child is in need of a bus pass to help her commute to work and continue searching for a better-paying job. Without a car, she has relied on ride shares, which have become too costly to sustain. Providing a bus pass would ease this burden, helping her maintain stable employment and explore new opportunities—ultimately creating a more secure and consistent environment for her young child. Your support would make a meaningful difference in their daily life and future stability.

Help Make a Kinship Placement

A loving and devoted grandmother is currently raising her sixteen-year-old granddaughter through kinship care, stepping up selflessly to provide the stability, love, and guidance her granddaughter needs during a difficult chapter in their lives. She has created a safe and nurturing home, showing incredible strength and resilience every step of the way.

Recently, this strong caregiver faced a life-changing diagnosis: breast cancer. She underwent a double mastectomy and is now in the early stages of recovery. As she heals, she is unable to work and is struggling to manage household needs on her own. One urgent issue she’s facing is a severely clogged kitchen sink, which has made daily life and meal preparation extremely difficult. Despite her best efforts, she cannot afford to have the plumbing repaired.

She is not asking for charity — only a helping hand to restore basic functionality in her home while she regains her strength. Your support, whether through financial aid, plumbing services, or referrals, would bring relief to a family doing everything they can to stay strong and stay together. By helping this grandmother, we are not only resolving a household crisis — we are preserving a home, protecting a child, and uplifting a woman whose love and courage are holding her family together.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

I am reaching out on behalf of a young mom who is currently staying at the Ronald McDonald House, over an hour away from home, as she cares for her premature newborn baby boy. Until her baby is medically cleared to go home, she’s spending nearly all of her time there, away from her regular support system.

To help her prepare for a safe and smooth transition home, we are seeking donations of essential baby items. These donations will be delivered to this requestor, who will coordinate with her to ensure she receives what she needs.

Requested Items: Infant car seat (suitable for a newborn/premature baby) Double stroller (for her newborn and 2-year-old) Preemie and newborn clothing, including: Onesies, sleep sets, socks, burp cloths, swaddles, newborn thru size 2 diapers, wipes and other basic infant care items.

Your support will allow this mom to:

  1. Bring her baby home safely from the hospital
  2. Get to essential doctor appointments
  3. Navigate life with a newborn and a toddler

Even small contributions make a big difference during this time. Thank you for helping us support a mom who’s doing her best under difficult circumstances.

Donations will be collected at the requesting agency. Please reach out with any questions.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

I am working with a awesome, hard working Single mom that does amazing work helping others in the community is now facing some hardships. She and her family attended, participated wholeheartedly and graduated from our 14-week Strengthening Family Program and has been an outspoken advocate for family wellness. She was recently put in a very hard situation and received news that her landlord is selling her home expectantly, and she was put in a time crunch and after searching and searching for a new place she found one and has to come up with a deposit of $1000 to hold the unit. After talking with the new homeowner, he stated she could allow her to pay $500 by Monday 6/9/25 and the other $500 by Friday 6/13/25. If you can help, please be a blessing to this mom, please, she has helped so many families in her line of work, and she has just paid her rent where she is currently living and does not have the money for her deposit. If you could please help her so she and her children are not put out on the street, and can move into their new home. Anything you can donate would be a great help. Thank you!
