Good afternoon Restore CarePortal family! We recently helped a family obtain a dumpster that is working with Family Centered Services so they could clean out their home to make a safer, clean environment for the children to return. This family has experienced significant loss recently, and is working to find stability going forward as income and head of household roles have changed. They are currently working to get caught up on their electric bill, and could use support to help. Mom will be working with our church team as well to go through budget and form a plan to make sure they remain sustainable in the future. Due to your generosity, we will be able to use funding for this family!! Please add this family to your prayers.

This request is part of the Bundles of Hope Initiative. Citrus Family Care Network is working closely with this young adult who aged out of foster care and is part of the Independent Living Program. The young adult is doing his best to provide a safe nurturing environment for their little one. The young adult is caring for a child under the age of 2 and the child needs size 3 diapers and wipes. Would you consider stepping in to meet this need? A simple gift of diapers and wipes can ease a real burden and remind this young adult that are seen and supported. Your response sends a powerful message: You are not alone and your community cares.

16 year old teen girl is placed in a foster home in Wichita long term. However her aunt is in KC and is an ongoing support. She will be providing a week long respite while the foster home is out of town, but is limited on her income and has two other children of her own. She is needing support with groceries for the week while the foster child (her niece) is with her. Gift cards for Walmart, target, or other grocery stores are accepted or payment for groceries.

This request is for a young mom of two children, ages 5 years and 2 years. She just learned that she is pregnant and is most likely near the end of the first trimester. Mom and her children have allergies and frequent illnesses. The condition of this family's home appears to be affecting the family's health detrimentally. There have been several instances of leaking and flooding in the living room and the bedrooms in the past year which has damaged the carpet and caused mold to develop in the bedrooms and in the carpet. The maintenance dept at her apartment complex has addressed some of the leaking issues, but not the problem of the moldy carpet or the mold.

The family could benefit from a dehumidifier, an air purifier, and a vacuum with a HEPA filter to help remove the moisture and significantly reduce the amount of allergens in the home. Mom is not currently working outside the home and has no income of her own. She is supported with a small stipend by the children's father but does not have enough to pay for the items mentioned. If the family can do some mitigation on their own, it will improve the children's and mom's health and well-being while they wait for the carpet to be removed. I am certain that this will make a positive difference.

We were put in contact with a mom who is in need of beds for her kids. Please let me know if you are able to help!

Grace Chruch Family, a need in the community has come to our attention that we would like to help with. A mom needs help with an electric bill. She has 3 children ages 6, 2, and 5 months. The baby was born early and this has caused her to get behind on several bills. Thank you for any amount you feel led to fund.

A family with a child with special needs (seizure disorder and autism) is seeking assistance for a small portable air conditioner. Initially mom thought that the landlord got this fixed but as the days get hotter the a/c cannot keep up. The child’s seizures worsen with heat and the mom is about to undergo a surgery. Does anyone have a used portable a/c that can be donated? Or can you find it in your heart to donate to this cause?

Single mother (who Emmaus members have been walking alongside) escaping domestic violence from husband along with two kids under the age of 7 years. She is starting over from scratch as they left the house with nothing and has no extended family support. She would like to have a car which would provide transportation so she can get a job so that she can get into housing. We are hoping to provide $3,000 towards a vehicle.

If you have any connections to help with housing or a job (she doesn't have childcare so maybe a daycare center, work from home, etc) please respond to this request or reach out to Julie-Anne or Kandilyn Ford.

Thank you for offering support and prayer for this family!
