3 Children 1 Adult

A single mother of three has just been approved for a new apartment — a critical step toward stability for her and her children. Her current lease is not being renewed, and she must move by June 1st. The only thing standing in the way is the $1,700 security deposit, which is due this week to reserve the apartment.

Please consider contributing or sharing. Let’s come together to give this mom and her children the fresh start they deserve.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

This is a need for help with rent. The family has part of the rent but due to medical bills, cannot pay the amount. The adoptive Mom had experienced medical bills and prescription bills this month that caused her to use her rent money to meet those needs. She has a portion of her rent but is requesting assistance with the remaining amount. She will submit a letter from her landlord/apartment management that states the amount due that is remaining. She will be notified that this is a one time help and cannot be requested again at a later date. Update as of 5/19: Adoptive Mom experienced a Medical Emergency over the weekend and is in the hospital.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

Foster mom has 4 children in her home and needs assistance with her utility bill. In May, everyone in the home was sick and she had to miss 2 weeks of work. Foster mom is the only adult in the home and there is no other income coming into the home. Finances are already tight, so this has caused stress on the family. If she is able to receive assistance for her utility bill, it would reduce her stress level and ensure the family's ability to afford to pay for other bills, food, etc.

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!
