Request: #233706 • Urgency: Normal • Demographic: Child-Centered Request • City: Miami • State: Florida • Zip Code: 33142 • County: Miami-Dade • Submitted By: OCS-HOPE FL-Southern • Lead Church: Community Disciples of Christ

Story

•
4 Children 1 Adult

The participant is a devoted single mother of four young children, including a set of baby twins. Over the past year, she faced the unimaginable challenge of homelessness, living in her car while doing everything she could to keep her children safe and cared for. Despite these overwhelming circumstances, she remained resilient and determined to build a better future for her family.

Through the support of Camillus, she was able to transition into stable housing — a major and life-changing step forward. Now, as she continues to rebuild her life, she is working hard to provide her children with a safe, clean, and nurturing home. However, she still faces financial challenges that make it difficult to afford essential household items.

She is in need of basic furniture, such as a sofa, as well as cleaning products to help maintain a healthy living environment. These items would not only bring comfort and stability to her home, but also contribute to the overall well-being of her children, creating a space where they can feel safe, relax, and thrive.

Any support provided would have a meaningful and lasting impact on this strong mother and her young family as they continue their journey of healing and hope.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

The mama we're supporting is so overwhelmed. She and her husband have one daughter and a second on the way. Recently, her parents became homeless and she took in her 6 siblings to help maintain their stability. The additional costs have been significant, but they've been able to manage. This month, however, they've struggled to keep up with utility bills. We're requesting your support to pay their electric bill which is now past due. We asked her to provide their Consumers Energy bill including the account number so it can be paid directly. Your commitment will ease the burden and stress load on the small family as they work together to find a lasting solution.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

A young mom and dad of three small children are needing assistance with childcare for the summer. They have secured more affordable childcare but it does not begin until September. Currently childcare costs are 275.00 a week for three children (including one infant). Mom and Dad are able to pay 175 out of pocket but need help with the rest. They have been able to secure part of the money needed from friends but are still needing 800 dollars to ensure all three kids have safe childcare through the summer. In September, the cost will decrease to the point where mom and dad can afford it on their own.

A young family of 2 children ages 1 and 7 years old are requesting a 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 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.
