SW, a 16-year-old boy, has faced a lot of instability since entering foster care in early 2021 due to unmanageable behaviors. After several temporary placements, his stepmother recently stepped forward to welcome him into her home—offering a chance at the stability he desperately needs.

To help him feel truly at home, we're hoping to provide him with a dresser. Having a designated place to keep his clothes and personal items may seem small, but it goes a long way in giving him a sense of ownership and belonging. Your gift can help make this new beginning a successful one and support this youth in building a more secure future.

Would you consider donating a dresser to help him settle in?

Single parent household with two children. Mom is no longer employed to recent health concerns. Mom needs support with covering last month's rent and fees. Total is $1,500, but another family lives in the apartment as well. Hoping to get partial coverage.

My client is a 15 year old CSEC survivor that has remained in care the past 6 months. She is a straight A student and has been making many efforts in completing her goal. My client is in need of a dresser drawer and laundry basket for her placement. She stated that she would like the a pink or black dresser to help her store clothing in her bedroom. This would help my client tremendously and I am hopeful that this request can be granted. Thank you so much in advance.

There are 2 elementary age girls are who are in foster care but placed in a kinship home with their grandparents. The family has purchased 2 twin beds for the girls but need new mattresses and box springs for the beds. The beds were purchased to accommodate the girls in this kinship home. We would love for someone in the community to assist these grandparents with the purchase of mattresses and box springs for the 2 twin beds.

The wonderful non-relative caregiver has accepted placement of a 2 year old male. The caregiver has children of her own and is not currently receiving funding for the non-relative youth. The caregiver has asked for assistance obtaining clothing size 3t, shoes size 9c, potty chair, high chair, and plastic bins with drawers to use as a dresser for the youth's clothing. Any help is greatly appreciated! I've added a few links just for reference: Go To Link

We are supporting a single mother who has recently reunited with her children with weekly meals and a prayer team. She has requested assistance with her utility bill to get caught up. If you are able to help strengthen this bio family with financial contributions, we will contact you to log on to the City of Monroe website to pay the bill directly.

As you may be aware, Dave Petke is in the hospital with a UTI and blood pressure problems. Sharon is not able to be at the hospital all the time, it wears her out and her health is not good enough for her to be there with him all the time. She’s tried just calling to check in, this morning she sat on hold for 45 minutes and had to call back three times before she finally got someone to answer. Someone is needed this week to sit with Dave each day between the hours of 8am-12pm to give Sharon time to get ready and get over there each day to be with him. Please do not share this need beyond our church family. You will be contacted with specifics of where to go when you select your day. Thank you!

I am working with a awesome, hard working Single mom that does amazing work helping others in the community is now facing some hardships. She and her family attended, participated wholeheartedly and graduated from our 14-week Strengthening Family Program and has been an outspoken advocate for family wellness. She was recently put in a very hard situation and received news that her landlord is selling her home expectantly, and she was put in a time crunch and after searching and searching for a new place she found one and has to come up with a deposit of $1000 to hold the unit. After talking with the new homeowner, he stated she could allow her to pay $500 by Monday 6/9/25 and the other $500 by Friday 6/13/25. If you can help, please be a blessing to this mom, please, she has helped so many families in her line of work, and she has just paid her rent where she is currently living and does not have the money for her deposit. If you could please help her so she and her children are not put out on the street, and can move into their new home. Anything you can donate would be a great help. Thank you!

One of our newly arrived families has moved into apartments that have no air conditioning and the family has no fans. We all know how hot it gets and the adults and the children can get overheated. If anyone can provide a free standing or window air conditioner or a couple fans, that would be wonderful. Thank you

I am reaching out on behalf of one of our Children’s Church students who is currently in foster care. Her mother has recently secured employment and is in the process of transitioning to a new home. While this is a positive step forward for their family, it has also placed a significant financial strain on them. Due to these circumstances, the family is unable to afford the registration fee for summer camp. However, we strongly believe that this child would greatly benefit from the experience—emotionally, socially, and spiritually. Camp would provide her with a safe, uplifting environment and a chance to grow in confidence and faith during a time of major life change. We are asking for help to cover the cost of her camp registration. Your support would make a meaningful difference in her life. Thank you for considering this request.
