Story

•
3 Children 1 Adult

The client currently resides with the father of her baby, their 6-month-old baby, and 17-year-old twins who have developmental delays. Due to complications during her pregnancy, the client was unable to work and fell behind on rent payments, which ultimately led to her eviction from her previous residence. She gave birth prematurely and continues to suffer from high blood pressure, which has delayed her ability to return to work. She is awaiting an appointment with a cardiologist next month to be medically cleared. Following the eviction, the client moved into a friend’s home. The father of the baby had been helping with rent, but was recently laid off and is no longer able to contribute financially. The client is planning to relocate to North Florida within the next few months, where housing is more affordable. She is currently seeking rental assistance in the amount of $1,000. The client lacks a strong support system and is in urgent need of financial and social support resources.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

A young aunt just took in her 13-year-old niece. The kiddo came with little to no clothing and no bed of her own. The 13-year-old is currently sharing a bed with her cousin and does not have proper sleeping arrangements. In order for the family to be licensed as a foster home, the 13-year-old child requires her own sleeping arrangements. Without proper sleeping arrangements, we may not obtain positive permanency for the child. The aunt is a single parent with children of her own. The family is needing a twin over twin bunk bed for the 13-year-old youth and another child in the home, as two twin size beds will not fit in the room. The family is also needing 2 twin mattresses, and 2 twin sheet sets for girls.

Help a Senior with Medical Needs

We’re reaching out on behalf of a beloved retired pastor and former U.S. Marine who served at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. He’s now facing serious health issues, including bladder cancer, and chronic kidney disease linked to toxic water exposure during his service, in addition he’s had multiple strokes and has dementia. Though he qualifies under the Camp Lejeune Justice Act, he’s not yet received any compensation or VA benefits. He currently lives in a board and care facility, but his Social Security falls $800 short each month. His wonderful daughter, who visits and helps care for him, has been covering the difference. Unfortunately, she suffered a medical emergency in March and hasn’t been able to work and has had to move in with a friend. Due to errors in processing her short-term disability, she hasn’t received income since then. Her close friends stepped in to help cover the past 2 months but they can no longer continue. With 2 months of unpaid board and care approaching, no clear timeline for when she’ll receive payment, and no other options, she is extremely worried about how she’ll cover the costs for June and July. We’re working on VA benefits and finding a more affordable facility if her income isn’t restored soon, but that is a lengthy process. In the meantime, we’re asking for your help to keep this faithful man who gave his life to serving God and our country in his current facility and not be forced onto the street. Please select “FUND” when giving.

Stabilize Housing Insecurity

Dear Team Sherry, this is our final update! Sherry, Kaya, and Kennedy are packing and preparing for the big move at the end of June. Kaya and Kennedy will move into their grandfather’s home in Yorba Linda and commute to Saddleback College. Kennedy graduated high school, got her permit, and will have her license soon. Kaya is carefully planning her transfer to Fullerton College in another year. Cameron remains in New York and is doing well. Sherry will be moving to Nevada to live with a longtime friend. It’s an emotional shift after many years living together, but this past year has been a gift. Thanks to your support, Sherry provided a stable home, helped Cameron begin a new path, supported Kaya’s growth, and celebrated Kennedy’s graduation all in their family home. While the family will no longer live together, they’re ending this chapter with something meaningful: Sherry, Kaya, and Kennedy will all serve as volunteers at Royal Family Kids Camp in late June. It’s a full-circle moment, as giving back to other foster families has always been a passion of theirs. Sherry says this year has been nothing short of a gift from God and that your generosity and prayers was the conduit of that blessing. On behalf of Max, thank you for stepping out in faith and making a lasting difference. Your support was not just financial it was a message of hope and love, and it changed the course of a family’s life. Thank you, Team Sherry! Please select “FUND” when donating.

Alleviate Food/Essentials Insecurity

The client is seeking assistance with her South Central Power bill, which is scheduled for disconnection on June 3, 2025, due to a past-due balance of $349.60. She is able to contribute $100 toward the amount owed.

The client recently experienced significant hardship, including a divorce followed by a car accident that was not her fault. As a result, she was temporarily unable to work and fell behind on her bills. She has since returned to full-time employment and now has a sustainable income.

Given her current circumstances and demonstrated effort toward self-sufficiency, she has been referred to InterFaith for possible assistance.
