We are working with a grandmother that took in her teenage grandchild. Grandmother has limitations that make it challenging to complete daily tasks. She relies on her son for financial assistance, but funds are limited and just cover her household expenses. Grandmother has limited ability to make more income and needs assistance with receiving groceries. She has applied for food stamps, but is waiting on approval. She has limited mobility and unable to get out into the community. Providing food for the family would help maintain a family bond and placement. Once food stamps is put in place, Grandmother would be able to provide food on an ongoing basis.

girl (4) is placed with her great aunt, who is a long term placement option for the child. The family could benefit from a secondary booster seat with a back to be able to safely transport in either vehicle at any time.

Mom needs a toddler bed and toddler bed mattress for her 3 year old little girl who has been co-sleeping with mom. Mom also shares this room with two other children. This would allow mom to put the youngest next to her in her own bed and allow mom to sleep better at night and allow for the child to get her own bed.

Help needed for a family struggling to keep their lights on. A single mother of three children has a late utility bill that is needing paid by 5/29/2025. Two of the children use nebulizers for their breathing treatments and are at risk of being unable to receive these treatments if the power is hut off in the home. Mother does not have any local family support to stay with if her lights are shut off and cannot afford to pay the bill in full by the time it is due. Please help prevent these children from entering foster care, any and all donations help!! Bill due: 5/29/2025 Minimum amount requested: $400 Maximum amount needed: $1000

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.

Please pray that our church can help our community, work together with our community and be a beacon of hope to our community as we praise and glorify our Lord. Let us love because He first loved us!

Let’s come together to support a wonderful 21-year-old mother and her precious 2-year-old daughter! We’re looking to provide a cozy twin bed, lovely bedding for her little one and a couch for them to sit on. Your generosity can make a big difference! Thank you for considering helping this family (Gently used is acceptable)!

Hi Crew! A Wooddale global partner is moving within Minneapolis, and they would appreciate some help with yard work this Friday and Saturday (5/23-24). I know this is very short notice on a holiday weekend, but if anyone is willing to help out, let me know!

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!
