Story

•
2 Children 1 Adult

A mother and her two children—a son and a daughter—have recently overcome a period of homelessness after finding safety in a domestic violence shelter. With the help of community support, the mother has now secured housing and just moved into a place they can call their own. She is working two jobs to provide for her children and is doing everything she can to build a safe, stable, and loving home. While they are incredibly grateful for this fresh start, they are starting over with very few belongings. The family is in need of essential furniture to make their new space functional and comfortable. Specifically, they are hoping for beds and bedding for all three of them (2 twin beds, and a full/queen mattress), a table where they can share meals together, and a sofa to create a welcoming space to relax as a family. They are open to gently used items and would be deeply thankful for any support offered during this transitional time. Your kindness can help bring comfort, dignity, and a sense of home to this resilient family as they begin to rebuild their lives.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

I am working with a family that expressed a need for a twin size bed/mattress for their family. There are three children, 5, 3 and 1 year old. The 5 year old is sleeping in a toddler bed, the 3 year old is in a crib and the one year old is sleeping in a pack n play that has several large rips. Wanting to ensure a safe sleeping environment for all children, the family is requesting a twin bed for the oldest so the 3 year old can use the toddler bed and the youngest can transition to the crib.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

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?

Help Assist a Victim of Domestic Violence

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!
