A compassionate couple in our community has offered to provide respite care for two brothers currently in foster care. Their willingness to help will give the boys’ foster parent much-needed rest and support. To make this possible, they need a twin bed and bedding. Maybe we can come together to equip this couple with what they need to welcome the boys into their home.

A compassionate member of the community has stepped up to provide respite care for a sibling group of four brothers. This generous act will allow their foster parent to receive much-needed rest and support. In order to make this possible, she needs 3 beds (twin beds with mattresses and bedding). These boys will be able to stay together in a safe, loving environment while their caregiver recharges. Let’s rally around this amazing volunteer and help make this possible!

This is a young single mother of two boys, ages 1 and 5. She has overcome many obstacles to provide for her children and is deeply devoted to their well-being, willing to do anything for them. The family has recently secured stable housing and is incredibly grateful to have a place to call their own. The mother works part-time but is struggling to afford clothing as her children are growing quickly. She would sincerely appreciate a gift card for clothing or donations of clothing for her boys, who wear sizes 18-24 months and children's size 6.

A wonderful couple in our community has graciously agreed to provide respite care for a 4-year-old boy while his foster parent is away later this month. They are eager to help and open their home, but they need a few basic items to make it possible (a toddler bed, bedding, and a baby gate). This couple is stepping up to care for a vulnerable child and offer much-needed support to a foster family. Maybe we can come together to meet this need and show them they’re not doing this alone.

This is a single father of two young boys, ages 3 and 4. He has overcome significant challenges and works hard to provide for his children. However, he is struggling to afford clothing for his boys as they continue to grow. Balancing rent, bills, groceries, and car expenses on a very tight budget is proving to be difficult. The father would greatly appreciate a gift card to any clothing store or receiving clothes for his children. They are currently in sizes 4-5T and kids' sizes 7-8. This would enable the father to provide more for his children.

A single mom in Cannon Falls is requesting assistance to replace a window in her trailer home. She already has a new window to install.

Mom has a child on the spectrum, so it is hard to find good day care. She is home with the kids until she can get services. That being the case, a kitchen table will help for the family's meals and for the kids to sit at and do activities. It will help the apartment to feel more like home. ALL THE ITEMS NEEDED ARE AVAILABLE FROM RISE CHURCH CP INVENTORY. NO FURTHER DONATIONS ARE NEEDED.
