Story

1 Child

Hello. First off, thank you all in this county for all that you do as while you make my job a bit "easier" the reality is, we are working hand in hand to enrich family's lives one by one in this county, and for that I am incredibly grateful for this community! I am working with a young teen mom. This young lady is doing a fantastic job at ensuring all her infant son's needs are being met however any mom, any age, we put our selves last. This young lady is ever so slightly too young to obtain a job and her family's financial situation have her needs being met minimally. When i ask a kiddo if they have everything they need and they ask for something as simple as fitted bed sheets or pillows, it pulls at my heart strings. Her requests were simple... and i had to pull them out of her! fitted sheets , some pillows, and a carpet runner or a small area rug for a room about a 8x 10 ft carpet however two carpet runners, would work well too. This lovely lady explained that her favorite colors are pink and or purple.

I placed the estimated needs price however if you have anything gently used, that works as well. If you are able to help this lovely lady out, please do not hesitate to call me at(###) ###-####. If I do not answer, you are also welcome to text and that will typically generate a faster response from me. Thank you for considering !!!!!

I can help with this request! I have funded $50 and can provide more if the needs are not fulfilled. I would also be happy to text with this young mom and help her choose a few items from Amazon or WalMart and order them for her.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

One of our moms has a 5 month old baby girl that sleeps a lot better in a baby swing - and gives our teen mama some rest as she does other things around the house during naps. She doesn't have any "safe" sleep places currently for her baby other than her own bed, but she fell off once during a nap. She has no support and does everything on her own, so this would be such a gift to her to have for her baby!

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

A family from our team is taking a little girl who needs a safe place, whom we met through our CarePortal connection with the Yada Project. This sweet 3-year-old is full of energy and joy. This placement has come up very unexpectedly, and we would love to come alongside this family as they see what God is doing. Some helpful items would be a toddler stroller that is easy to fold, a toddler bed with bedding, 4T summer/fall clothes for a little girl, and size 10 sandals. She loves purple, pink, and anything "pretty." Gently used is fine. Additionally, if anyone has any extra toys lying around that they would like to give away:).

Stabilize Housing Insecurity

A blessed opportunity to help a young, Christian family make it through a very difficult time in the heat of summer. A mother and father trying to secure a roof over their young children and feed their family. Tragically, the mother just lost her baby during delivery; father had to take time off from work to take care of her. He is back working but they are behind a few paychecks.

They need help to stay in a hotel for 2 weeks while they save money to rent an apartment (the apartment isn't ready yet). They could also use help with essentials and food.

If we can help them now, it will stabilize their income and resources for the future.
