Bio mom of 5 children just started new job after missing 7 months of work due to her young son's behavioral issues at school. He is now been diagnosed with ADHD and ODD and is receiving the help he needs. As a result of missing so much work, she is behind on some critical bills. She needs to pay $265 for a title loan on her car to prevent repossession. She also needs to pay the West End Center $280 for them to keep her kid for the summer so she can work. She is also requesting a Wal-Mart gift card to buy her kids swim trunks and shoes for their daycare as well as toiletry and household items needed.

A family that I am working with could use some financial assistance for groceries, now that the kids are out of school. Any assistance is truly appreciated! They are utilizing their local food bank.

We have a new kinship family that is in need of a box of size 4 diapers and wipes. Kinship is new and hasn't started getting the kinship stipend yet, therefore funds are limited, and diapers can get expensive! A box isn't necessary but it will provide enough to hopefully get placement on their feet until the stipend starts rolling in.

A child placed in an intermediate children's center for intellectual disabilities has been moved to a bigger cottage. The child has requested a Nintendo Switch, and the staff feels he would fit in better with the other children in the cottage if he was to have one. Owning a Nintendo Switch would help him feel included during conversations or group activities, as several other members in the cottage has their own devices.

A caregiver is needing assistance with getting transportation donated bunk beds. Due to the caregiver not having a proper vehicle to transport the beds, she will need help with getting the beds from Oldsmar to her home in Riverview. Once assistance is received her 17-year-old nephew will have sufficient sleeping arrangement rather than the current situation which is an air mattress. Assistance with getting a rental moving truck or a volunteer that can help with the transportation is highly appreciated.

This family in need has been displaced. The mother is staying with family and needs an air mattress for all of her children, as well as bedding. She has wo children, one of which is on the spectrum and has higher needs. The child is distressed by the disruption of their routine. Having these items will improve their sleeping management and reintroduce routine for the children; further improving their sleep and lowering their stress over their housing disruption.

One of our own church members who is elderly and disabled is seeking assistance with creating a new home in an apartment. She is needing some basic needs to furnish her home. Some people have already donated a couch, bed, dresser and blender. She is needing the following items: TV (24-32"), TV stand, dining room table and chairs, dinnerware set, vacuum cleaner, pots and pans, microwave oven, set of bathroom towels (bath, washcloth, hand towel), shower curtain, queen-sized bedding set, and kitchen towels. She will be moving to her new apartment later in June.

Gently used items are acceptable for the furniture, microwave and dishes.
