A mother of three children in need of assistance with utilities with Electric and Gas. The mother states that the lease is in her name, however, the utilities are not.

Mother reported that she just recently started her job this week. Any assistance that you may be able to give this family would be greatly appreciated.

Updated on June 04, 2025 by an Agency Worker

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

Kin provider has taken in her two young grandchildren, ages 2 and 3 years old. Parents have not been helping out financially and she could use help in getting the children each a tricycle and a life jacket so that they're able to enjoy the outdoors for the summer. This would also help the kin get a break, while the kids have some activities to engage in. Any help on these items is so appreciated by this grandmother.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

Hey team, we have a family in our church that serves as a foster family. The birth mom for the child is in need of a convertible car seat so they can have the child for visitation. This would meet a huge need for this mom and child and serve the foster family as well. If you happen to have one in good condition that you could give her that is great or here is an option if you would be available and willing to purchase one. You can just get it to me and I'll make sure the foster family gets it. Thanks so much team.

Help Improve an Adult’s Well-Being

Newly arrived Special Immigrant Visa holder family of 7 who fled from Afghanistan (US allies) is needing a bunkbed for 4 daughters to settle into a single bedroom in their 2 BR-1BA apartment this week.

Unfortunately, due to limited space in bedroom (needing to fit 2 sets of bunk beds), twin bunk beds will fit better than full bunk beds, so probably not flexible on that aspect of this request.

Depending on the bunk bed frame that you donate, we may or may not need box springs, so I didn't add those explicitly to this request.

Thanks!

Help Support a Youth Aging Out

We have a youth accepted to Georgia Gwinnett College starting in August. She will definitely need a laptop for school. Although her tuition should be covered by the state through the Independent Living Program (ILP), she will be living on campus and will have to pay her own dorm fees, ($400 per month). She will have a job on campus to try to cover those fees, but is also working now trying to save up for a car. She would greatly appreciate any and all help you could provide to set her up well to succeed at school. Please join us in praying for this youth!
