Request: #232860 • Urgency: High • Demographic: Child-Centered Request • City: Natural Bridge • State: Virginia • Zip Code: 24578 • County: Rockbridge • Submitted By: Rockbridge Area Community Services

Story

•
4 Children 1 Adult

This request is being made on behalf of a single mother of four children who were scheduled to move into an apartment complex in mid-April. When moving in, the family noted a foul odor throughout the apartment and discovered large areas of the carpeting covered in animal urine. After pulling up the carpeting and padding, it appears that large portions of the carpet, padding, and subfloor are stained by urine and possible mold to the degree that Stanley Steamer declined to clean the carpeting. The apartment complex has refused to replace the carpet and padding and has told the family they can pay to replace the carpet or they can have their security deposit and rent already paid back. The family has no other place to live, must be out of the current home on May 31, and has an exemplary record of past tenancy in our community.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

We have a child in a group home, and they are struggling there. They are dealing with a lot of peer conflict. The CASA is trying to help make the child's birthday special, so the child has something they can look forward to celebrating. The child has asked for a Walmart gift card and a drawing/sketching set as a present. If anyone is able to help secure these items, we would be so appreciative!!

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

A single mother, previously living in a sober living facility that could not accommodate her three young children, sought help at CRM to improve her family's situation. Committed to bettering their lives, she secured employment and began working hard to build a stable future for her and her children. A key part of this stability is providing her children with their own beds, which will offer them a sense of security and comfort, ensuring they experience a stable and nurturing childhood. Through her determination and support from CRM, she is working toward creating a brighter, more stable future for her family.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

I’m reaching out today to ask for help for a strong, resilient, loving mother of a 15-year-old boy, a 2-year-old little boy, and a precious 7-month-old baby girl. For the last four years, this family lived in a one-bedroom apartment in Kerman, dealing with heartbreaking conditions. The apartment was infested with roaches and had black mold growing in the walls — an unsafe, unhealthy place for anyone, let alone for children. Despite paying high rent to a neglectful landlord who refused to make things right, they had no choice but to stay because it was all they could afford.

Recently, this Mom was finally able to relocate her family to a new apartment in Sanger. But with the move came another hard decision — she had to throw away nearly everything they owned because it was too infested and damaged to take with them. They left behind beds, furniture, kitchenware, and even the baby’s belongings. Now, this family is starting over with almost nothing, and we’re hoping to rally our community to help them rebuild their home and give these children the safe, clean, and loving space they deserve.
