Story

5 Children

A sibling group of five are with new caregivers. They are wanting to continue to support the valuable sibling connection and ensure they don’t need to split the group between different homes. To ensure this doesn’t happen we are requesting 2 bunk beds and a decent sized dresser to accommodate the needs of the children.

Updated on June 02, 2025 by an Agency Worker
Additional Information about the family in need: The children were living in a hotel for 3 months with their father after the family was evicted from their apartment. They had to leave everything behind and only have the clothes they left with. The grandmother is disabled and needs assistance in obtaining the furniture to accommodate the children's sleeping arrangements.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

This is a devoted caregiver, age 49, who is currently caring for three children, ages 1 years old to 5 years old. This caregiver has been impacted financially in caring for these children so suddenly. Her work hours were reduced to provide care to the children. In her commitment to providing a safe, nurturing, and organized environment, she faces some challenges that impact the children’s day-to-day comfort and well-being. Specifically, she needs assistance to purchase a high chair and adequate clothing storage for the children. A high chair is essential for safe and comfortable feeding, especially for younger children who require support while eating. Without a proper high chair, mealtimes are difficult and unsafe. Additionally, adequate clothing storage is critical to maintaining organization and ensuring the children’s clothes are clean, accessible, and properly cared for. With three children, limited storage space leads to clutter and misplaced items. Having sufficient storage promotes independence, as the children can easily find and put away their clothes, helping to build their confidence and responsibility. Providing these essential items will enhance the children’s quality of life. The high chair will ensure safe and comfortable mealtimes. Organized clothing storage will reduce daily stress and create a calm environment, fostering a sense of order and stability for children who are already experiencing so much.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

I have 3 children in a safety plan with their great uncle and his companion in Wister. The family is located off route 271 past the Leflore/Summerfield crossroads. There is 1 boy age 8 years old and 2 girls age 10 and 3 years old. The family is requesting help with food for the children, bath soap and toothpaste for the children. The great uncle and his companion both live off social security and any help would be a great help to the children staying in placement. The girls report that they like the smell of coconut and peach for body washes. The boy reports that he like body wash like Axe and Old Spice. The family didn't specify a type or flavor of toothpaste but it will be for children. The great uncle reports that the children eat quite frequently and he is going to see if he can get food assistance next week to help feed the children.

The family stated delivery at their home would be ok with them. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

A hard working single mom of 4 children (age ranges between one and eleven) from the Goddard area has reached out for help. She works with foster children and cleans houses for income but stated that her work has slowed down this past month and she was unable to pay her electric bill. Initially she thought the company was going to work with her on lowering her payments but unfortunately the company is unable to accommodate. Her electricity is scheduled to be turned off on 6/5/25 if she is unable to pay the $347.00. Would anyone be willing to help this family?
