Story

•
3 Children 1 Adult

Currently working with a single father who is facing a series of devastating setbacks. Recently, his employer downsized, drastically cutting his hours, leaving him with barely enough income to stay afloat. As if that wasn’t enough, his car—his only means of getting to work and taking his daughters to school—broke down unexpectedly. The repairs were costly, forcing him to use what little he had saved just to keep it running. Now, he’s behind on rent and accumulating late fees, with eviction looming over his head. Despite doing everything he can to provide, his application for EBT was denied, leaving him unable to afford even the most basic groceries. He’s the sole caregiver to three growing daughters who need food, clothing, and other daily essentials, and can use a Walmart or target gift card. Urgently needs support especially food cards and basic necessities.

Help Preserve a Foster Care Placement

Please help preserve three foster children with their relative placement! White County DFCS has 3 children placed with their grandfather who resides in Walton County. This grandfather has taken on caring for his three young grandchildren. During the home assessment, it was noted that there is a substantial amount of items or clutter that is causing them pause with the approval.
The grandfather is in need of assistance obtaining a storage building. The grandfather would greatly benefit from assistance paying for the storage building for three months. This helps him get through the home evaluation process and supports him as he balances medical appointments for the children. The grandfather would also greatly benefit from any and all assistance with hauling the items to the storage unit. He has a lot of the items already packed into boxes. This helps preserve children being with biological family and helps the home to be able to be approved to maintain that familiar bond. Thank you!

Caregiver has custody of her two grandchildren and with summertime quickly approaching, the children will need access to quality food, water, and lights. Please consider helping this family in their time of need.
