Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

Grandparents have Power of Attorney for their three grandchildren. Grandparents need clothing and shoes for the children. Grandparents have had to decrease their work hours to ensure childcare is covered. Grandparents and Mother have agreed to a Power of Attorney as an alternative to DHS opening a case and grandparents have supported the children fully for over 2 years. Mother does not provide any support.

The family also is in need of two toddler beds and bed frames as well as one booster seat.

Sizes for the children's clothes: Size 8 in boys, size 7/8 in girls, and size 4T in girls.

Help Make a Foster Care Placement

An inspiring couple is taking the steps to become licensed foster parents. This couple specifically feels called to foster teenagers, which is always a significant need. They have begun the licensing process and recently did their home study. The agency informed the couple that some repairs and upgrades to the couple's home are needed to comply with licensing requirements before they can move forward. This includes repairs to the floor in a bedroom, repairing the shower in a bathroom, adding doors to rooms that do not currently have them, and repairing some chipping paint. This couple attends an amazing church that has secured a contractor who will donate his time, but they need help in securing the construction supplies to complete the repairs. The contractor and another volunteer from the church have priced out the items and about $450 is needed to purchase them. Your help with meeting this need will not only help the couple, but it will also help them to provide a safe and loving home for teenagers who are in foster care.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

Two parent household with 3 children. Ages 11, 10, and 4. The family relies on the school to provide PediaSure to the two older children to help support their healthy development and growth. The school year will be over in just a few short weeks and the school will no longer provide this support to the family over the summer. Request would be for at least two packs of PediaSure to help support the children’s growth and development over the summer break. Cost of one 16-bottle pack is around $30. Total cost is approximately $60.

Help Make a Kinship Placement

A Teller County family is in need of a full sized mattress for a 12 year old boy. This child was found to be living in an unsafe, uninhabitable home for the past 5 months. He was not in school, and was struggling with his own health/mental health distress, due to his living environment and lack of support. After removal from this home, his aunt and uncle did not hesitate to rally around him immediately, despite having a toddler of their own and baby on the way. They are willing to be a long-term support while his parent stabilizes their mental health. These loving family members took him in, got him back into school, and provided him with a warm and nurturing environment. This family has done so much to provide their support, let's show them some support in return. The family would be greatly appreciative!

Help Assist a Victim of Domestic Violence

I am reaching out to request your urgent assistance for a family in need. A local mother, who is currently facing an extremely difficult and traumatic situation, is in urgent need of hotel accommodations for the week.

Her 15-year-old daughter has recently been the victim of domestic violence. The young girl was severely attacked by her boyfriend and is now in critical condition. As a result, the mother is staying in a hotel nearby to be by her daughter’s side during this incredibly challenging time.

Due to the circumstances, the mother is in desperate need of support to continue staying close to her daughter while ensuring her own well-being. Your help in providing hotel accommodations would be a great blessing and relief for this family during such a heartbreaking ordeal.

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.
