Story

•
6 Children 1 Adult

Maternal grandmother got custody of her 6 grandchildren through family court in 2023.

They lost their house in a house fire in 2024 and were moved to a shelter home through Family Promise. They were able to find housing and are able to move this month (June 2025).

Looking for 6 single beds OR 3 bunk beds with mattresses. Looking for 6 small dressers OR 3 large dressers.

I looked on Amazon to compare prices and found way cheaper options vs. the estimated value given.

Appreciate any help, thank you!

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

A client of mine has been working full time for months and has a lot of bills at this time including reinstitution and needing to help his mother with her cancer and chemo going on. Ct says he is in need of a queen bed because he has his kids, as he gets them twice a week. When he has his kid they are all sleeping on the floor of any house they are at. Ct also stated that he and his mother last year had rented out his mothers home and needed some money at the time and sold the washer and dryer but since now they are getting the moms house back they are needing a washer and dryer again. This is needed to do all laundry of the house hold including his mothers, his and his children's laundry. ( I do not know what type of dryer he needs gas or electric) if we can get this I will need to find out.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

I am reaching out to request financial support on behalf of my client, a dedicated mother of two young children who is currently navigating a difficult financial period due to her daughter’s special needs. She has always placed her children’s well-being above all else, but recent circumstances have created a temporary hardship.

Several months ago, my client made the difficult decision to leave her job in order to care for her autistic daughter, after multiple daycare centers were unable or unwilling to accommodate her needs. Concerned for her daughter’s safety and emotional well-being, she chose to become her full-time caregiver.

Although she has received some assistance through a Navigator for essentials such as food, clothing, and basic necessities, her inability to work full-time has placed a significant strain on her finances. She is currently relying on contract work with Amazon to support her family.

At this time, financial assistance is urgently needed to help her maintain her car, which is vital for continuing her Amazon work. This support would provide her with the stability she needs to care for her children while working toward a more sustainable, long-term solution for her daughter’s care.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
