We have a bio father in need of financial assistance with a gas gift card. He just started a new job and it will be 2 weeks before he receives his first paycheck. He lives out in Midway and needs to be able to get to and from work here in Colorado Springs. Maintaining his job is an important step in working on his plan for reunification with his 4 children that are in foster care at this time.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

I have a mother and 3 kids in an apartment in Rochester that are in need of a washer and dryer. Mom started working and is trying to get her GED. She just started a job and is waiting on her first check. She is receiving some help from family to get the kids clothes washed but she doesn't want to keep bothering people to help her with the laundry. Meeting this need will help mom be more efficient while the kids are at daycare. Since she is working, she finds it hard to get her laundry done while the kids are in daycare and it is very hard to do laundry with three kids under the age of 3.

The mother, a Section 8 voucher holder; lacks sufficient funds for the move and is currently on leave from her job due to safety concerns. The relocation is essential to ensure the child's safety and continued education. Additional support is needed to overcome educational barriers resulting from this situation.

Help Maintain Work Transportation

When hardship hits, we turn to our church family. A dedicated single mom of 4, who also cares for a young adult who has aged out of the foster care system, needs our help. She works full-time as a home health aide driving up to 70 miles a day to care for her clients, part of what she does is taking them to appointments, and picking up prescriptions and groceries. She also drives her kids to school daily. One afternoon, after school pickup, she was hit by a driver who fled the scene. Thankfully, she and the kids were unharmed, but her car was badly damaged and had to be towed. With no backup vehicle, she’s rented a car for 3 weeks to keep working and caring for her family but she can’t afford to keep renting a car. To keep insurance affordable, she has a high deductible. She’s saved $600 but still needs $1,400 to get her car out of the body shop this week. The body shop won’t accept payments, and the charities she contacted don’t cover this type of need. The children’s father is not involved or supportive. Church family, let’s come together and help this hardworking mom and her kids get their car back. No gift is too small. Please select “Fund” when donating. Every dollar makes a difference!

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

127 Place received a request from a member of a local church for a mom with three pre-school-age kids who are living in a motel. This family is from out-of-town looking for safety and a new life. They have no family support. They were just approved for an apartment with a move-in date of June 1, but they need help with deposits.

Mom started a job recently and has raised about half of the deposits. 127 Place is committing $500, but that leaves about $400 still needed for the deposits.

They do have beds, but nothing else, so 127 Place will also be working to provide other essentials for them to get started in their apartment. If you would like to help with donations for this family, please contact me by email ******@email.com or by text,(###) ###-####.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

A young family of 2 children ages 1 and 7 years old are requesting a washer and dryer as they moved into a house from an apartment. The couple have been here from Venezuela for about 2.5 years and help out at Centro Cristiano a Las Naciones with leading music. They moved from an apartment which had a washer and dryer and now they need to provide for their own. The father is looking for work and does odd jobs to help pay for rent, bills, food, clothing, etc. A washer and dryer will help mom take care of her kids so that they will be able to attend school and help their hygiene. Thank you for your help.
