Help Make a Foster Care Placement

A 15-year-old foster teen girl is able to leave a group home placement and is excited to be going to a foster family home with a single foster mom. As a teen girl would love best, she would enjoy shopping and picking out her own bedding set (Visa Gift Card) and hygiene products (Walmart or Target Gift Card) and clothes (Visa Gift Card). Picking out her own things will enable her to feel good about herself being able to pick out her own styles. She needs new clothes and shoes since she has changed sizes. She now wears size Medium Adult Shirts and 4/6 Junior teen pants and size 9 shoes.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

Our preservation team is currently involved with a 16 year old female who is in need of linkage to youth group and church support after moving in with her grandmother in Port Richey, very far away from her original church of origin. This youth was actively involved in weekly youth group and church proceedings and she is now in need of a new church family. She is a hard working child who takes school and work seriously but over everything, she prioritizes the need to attend church and be surrounded by a wealth of support and positive influences. The grandmother is excited about any opportunity that may help this youth get reacclimated in a community that can encourage and empower this child who has had to move homes and leave her job and church this past week. Thank you for your willingness to support a great kid.

Support an Expecting Mom and Her Unborn Baby

Good morning, friends. I have been made aware of a young woman who is 7 1/2 months into a high-risk pregnancy, who has a connection with someone in our church. Part of what she is struggling with is that one of the twins she is carrying passed away quite early in the pregnancy. She has also been in and out of the hospital with various infections, but the baby is fine. She had to quit her job so she has no income and is also not physically able to get out to purchase what she needs. She is being supported emotionally by the baby's father and her parents, but they do not have the means to equip a nursery. If you have ANY baby items taking up space that you would be willing to part with or can help provide any of the items listed, it would be so encouraging and greatly appreciated by them all. She is having a girl and they do have some clothes. I do not expect all of these items to be provided, but I am just throwing out ideas. Thank you so much!
