Support an Expecting Mom and Her Unborn Baby

$500.00 still needed

Request: #236018 • Urgency: Normal • Demographic: Child-Centered Request • City: Lynchburg • State: Virginia • Zip Code: 24504 • County: Lynchburg City • Submitted By: Lynchburg City DSS

Story

1 Child 1 Adult

My client is an 8-month-pregnant mother of an 11-year-old girl and a 4-year-old boy. The baby is due in late June 2025. She recently separated from her husband, who experienced a mental health crisis after witnessing a traumatic event. Prior to relocating to the area in May 2025, her family lost everything during a tornado and hurricane in another state. A local shelter assisted in securing housing for them, but they currently have no clothing for themselves or the newborn, nor any essentials for the baby's arrival. Despite being 8 months pregnant, she is enrolled in online classes to pursue a career in medical billing and coding. She has visited local agencies seeking clothing for herself and her children but has been unable to find items that fit. I am requesting a $500 donation to purchase baby items and clothing for the family. This support will not only provide immediate relief but also strengthen the family's bond and well-being during this challenging time.

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!

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.

Help Preserve a Foster Care Placement

We currently are fostering 3 children and want to continue to make their experience meaningful. We have a 12 year old girl who could use some basketball shoes (size 7.5) and probably extra socks. We also have a sibling set ( girl 2, boy 1) who could use some pajamas. She wears 3T and he’s in 18month. Diapers and wipes are always needed. Thank you so much!
