This baby is currently in NICU at St. Luke's Hospital of Kansas City, and will be there for about 3 months. Placement is needing a few gas cards to get back and fourth to the Hospital to stay with the baby and bond with him. Thank You

A young mother and her child have never been out on their own. The mother recently became homeless and does not have much in the way of familial support. She was able to get into her own apartment with Canyon Housing Authority after couch hopping and not having anywhere to go. This is their first place, and she is moving in with practically nothing.

Great Aunt has placement of three children, ages 9, 3, and 1. The oldest is a boy and the other children are girls. They do not have beds and the aunt cannot afford to purchase three beds. I am requesting assistance for two twin beds, mattresses, and bedding and a crib, sheets, and crib mattress. The aunt could also use diapers and wipes size 5-6. Child is allergic to Huggies.

OKDHS is working a prevention case with a family with two young children. The children are in an out of home placement to prevent them from entering foster care. This safety plan monitor is providing a safe home for these children, but she has encountered several obstacles. She is behind on her rent due to not receiving her regular check for this month. She owes $1378.05 to get caught up and not face imminent eviction. She has been working with community resources but none have pledged to help her pay yet. She is facing possible eviction 6/14/25. She has been to court and is trying to work out a payment plan with her apartment administration. She needs to get them $400 as soon as possible. We are asking for help with this urgent need so that she can keep these children at risk of going into foster care in her home and prevent eviction.
Thank you for all the help you provide our families in need every day!

This request is on behalf of a 17 year old male high school student. December 2024 the student was hospitalized for mental health issues. Student was released into his mother's custody 4 days after being admitted to the hospital. Once at home student was met with mixed reactions about the experience from various family members and was told that he was weak and needed to toughen up. Despite the lack of moral support the student has began to make progress in the right direction with the help of weekly therapy sessions and mentoring from the youth pastor at Crenshaw Christian Center. Attending summer camp would give this student a much needed break from his home life and an opportunity to find much needed support and encouragement among his peers. This young man has attended various college tours and wants to pursue occupational therapy upon high school graduation.

I am submitting this request on behalf of a 17 year old high school male that is currently staying at a friends house due to being evicted out of his former home. This student is the oldest of 4 siblings. Mom is staying in temporary housing with his younger siblings and is sending what little finances she has where the student is staying. The student would greatly benefit from attending summer camp and would help to relieve some of the financial burden on mom. Student's father is not actively involved in his life and attending summer camp will give the student access to positive male role models as he continues to navigate his life. Thank you for your consideration of this request.

Family looking for assistance in obtaining stroller for baby (due November). Both parents are working with limited income and have been saving for other baby needs. Mother in active recovery and well engaged with a program through a local partner. Any assistance available would be helpful to this family. Thank you!

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.
