Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

I am currently working with a family in need. A family friend has assumed the role of temporary legal guardian for the child following the mother’s recent incarceration. She has taken on the responsibility of meeting the child’s basic needs and ensuring her overall well-being during this transitional period.

At present, the child is sleeping on a makeshift bed, as the caregiver works to secure appropriate sleeping arrangements. Due to the child’s rapid growth, the provision of a crib would greatly improve her safety and comfort during sleep.

The caregiver has expressed a strong commitment to supporting the mother throughout her incarceration and has consistently demonstrated herself to be a reliable and compassionate support for the child. Her involvement has provided much-needed stability and reassurance to the family during this difficult time.

A young family of 2 children ages 1 and 7 years old are requesting a dryer as they moved into a house from an apartment.

They moved from an apartment which had a washer and dryer and now they need to provide for their own. The father is looking for work and does odd jobs to help pay for rent, bills, food, clothing, etc. A dryer will help mom take care of her kids so that they will be able to attend school and help their hygiene. Thank you for your help.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

A single mother of 5 children missed quite some time from work due to unforeseen behavior issues with her 7-year-old son, who has since been diagnosed with ADHD and ODD. Due to these conditions, her son was not able to stay in school full days and she had to stop working for seven months until she was able to get him approved through his insurance for an in school one-on-one counselor, a smaller classroom setting and also a 504/IEP plan. Now that he has those, she has been able to get another job but won’t get paid until June 30th. She has fallen behind on her rent and several other bills. I am requesting help with the following bills: rent for May $833, she has worked out a payment plan with her landlord for the remaining balance if she can get May’s rent paid; light bill $274 and that is with an approval for cooling assistance from social services which starts on 6/15, her disconnect is for 6/16; water bill $54.37 which also has a disconnect for 6/16. I am also requesting assistance with food and gas money. Mom reached out to her social worker about all these requests, but worker was not able to process her snap application in time for her to receive benefits for June, so she won’t receive any snap benefits until July 4. She also needs money for gas to get to her job.
