Request: #236179 • Urgency: Normal • Demographic: Child-Centered Request • City: Albany • State: New York • Zip Code: 12208 • County: Albany • Submitted By: NY- Albany County DCYF • Lead Church: St. Ambrose

Story

•
1 Child

This request is to aid a single parent mother and her four young children. Her children are all under the year of 5, including a 5-year-old boy, 3-year-old boy, 2-year-old boy, and 6-month-old girl. The mother is hoping to be donated a walker and stroller for her 6-month old. She has been homeless and staying with relatives but has recently been approved for her own apartment. A stroller with head support, suitable for a 6 month old infant will help Mom be able to more easily travel from place to place with all of her children. The walker will ensure the baby has a safe environment to explore, develop muscle strength, and stay entertained if Mom needs to tend to the other children.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

A pair of brothers, ages 15 and 9 years old have been living in kinship care with their grandparents due to concerns of domestic violence and physical abuse by their stepfather. The boys came to their grandparents with limited clothing and hygiene products. The grandparents were able to get the boys some winter clothing when they came however, now that it is summer, the clothing they have for them is not weather appropriate. They are needing a gift card to be able to go purchase summer clothing that will fit and be appropriate for the boys over the summer. Grandparents live on a very fixed income with them being retired and could use help with getting a gift card.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

Mother and her 4 children had to leave their home unexpectedly for safety reasons, therefore leaving the majority of their clothing behind. The children do not have much if any cool weather clothing and most of the community clothing closets do not have appointments or much to offer at this time. Mother's income is going to saving for a security/first month rent so there is no disposable income to purchase these items. They need some assistance at this time. Children range in age from 12- 3 yrs old.

Help an Individual with Disabilities Improve their Wellbeing

There is a 30-ish year-old young man living at apartments in Castle Rock. He is paralyzed from the chest down and in a wheelchair. He was granted special permission to be at these apartments even though he doesn't qualify due to his age. He receives food from Help & Hope on a monthly basis when they visit him. His family lives in Elizabeth and has even less money than this young man. It is noted that sometimes he will give his money to his mom/dad so they can eat.

Help & Hope has been going to this gentleman's apartment on Wednesdays when they deliver food to him, and have been making his bed and doing light chores for him.

Looking for a weekly/monthly volunteer(s) who would like to visit this young man and assist with light chores?
