Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

I have a client who is a devoted single mother doing everything she can to build a better life for her children, but despite her hard work, they’re still having some struggles making ends meet. Her growing son has a small twin bed that he’s outgrowing, leaving him uncomfortable each night. She dreams of giving him the comfort and space he needs to rest and thrive. A proper bed something so many takes for granted would mean the world to them. It’s not just about furniture; it’s about dignity, rest, and a safe place where her son can grow and dream. My request is to provide this mother with a full-size bed for her son.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

Grandma has recently gained custody and care of her 6 year old, non-verbal, autistic grandson. Grandma is disabled and her only income is SSI. The family is in the process of fixing up the home to meet the needs of the child. In addition to being non-verbal and autistic, the child self-harms and has received no services until recently. They have cleared a room and are in the process of baby-proofing it in order to create a safe space for the child to sleep and play. Grandma has bought several items for the child, but is in need of additional items to help him gain independence, explore, emotionallly regulate, and to allow the grandmother an opportunity to safely perform tasks around the home.

Support an Expecting Mom and Her Unborn Baby

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!

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

Foster Care Awareness Month is here and around 6,000 children are in the Oklahoma foster care system on any given day. All though we care about each one of these amazing kids we want to come alongside those that are in our community to ensure that they know they are loved, supported, and have community.

All though we may not be able to solve the foster care crisis state wide we can solve it in our community. One easy step in doing this is by supporting the foster families that have stepped up on behalf of these precious children. We are working to get 25 care totes prepared for the 25 Foster families that are in our area. These totes are a small example of how we can help support them as they go into the summer months and resources are limited. This is a community opportunity for churches, businesses, nonprofits, and individuals to make a difference. Everyone can do something and together we can make a difference.

The items that you provide can be dropped of at ReaLove in Miami May 22nd & June 5th from 1 PM - 4 PM so that the Care Totes can be assembled and distributed to the families in June.
