Story

•
1 Child 2 Adults

I am working with a family who has an extremely high need 11-year-old who is a recent victim of sexual abuse. Typically, siblings or family would be able to watch the child during the summertime but for safety reasons they are now unable to do so. The adults are both working at this time and are unable to care for the child during the day and now are looking to send him to a summer camp. However, the daycare/summer camp that can care appropriately meet his needs for his behaviors costs $220 a week and is too much of a financial burden for this family, even with both adults working. I am hoping that some individuals would perhaps be willing to help this family cover the cost of a week of the summer camp to reduce the financial stress this situation is putting on the family and so both adults are able to keep their current employment.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

After months of living in their van, a single father and his three children finally have a roof over their heads — a house they can call home. But right now, it's just four walls and a floor. They have no beds, no table to eat at, no couch to sit on — nothing but the clothes they moved in with.

This dad has worked hard to keep his kids safe and hopeful through incredibly tough times. With your help, we can fill their home with the essentials every family deserves — a place to sleep, eat, and simply be together in comfort.

Here’s what they need to make their house a home:

Beds (twin and full/queen) Mattresses and bedding Couch or living room seating Kitchen table and chairs Dresser(s) or storage furniture Towels, blankets, and pillows Lamps and small household items Kitchenware (pots, pans, dishes, silverware) Cleaning supplies Grocery gift cards Every donation, whether it's a gently used item or something new, brings this family one step closer to stability and dignity. If you'd like to help, please reach out — we can coordinate pickup or drop-off.

Let’s rally together to support this father’s love and resilience — and give his kids the warm, welcoming home they’ve been waiting for.
