Story

5 Children 2 Adults

We are requesting support for a family of seven (two parents and five children) who are currently residing in a family shelter. The father is working to provide for the family and relies on the family’s vehicle to get to and from work. The vehicle is currently in need of maintenance and repairs, and without it, the father will be unable to maintain employment.

This support will directly impact the well-being of the children by helping the family stabilize their income and stay on a path toward permanent housing. Reliable transportation is essential to ensure the family can access work, school, medical appointments, and community resources.

Your assistance in covering the cost of repairs will play a critical role in helping this family move forward and provide much-needed security for the children during this time of transition.

Specific Need: Auto repair or financial assistance for vehicle maintenance: Family is receiving shelter support and working to move toward long-term stability.

Hey everyone, I don't know about you but when our family has car issues it can be debilitating. I can only imagine how it is for these parents (they've got even more kids than me!) If you're able to chip in and help, our church will work with the family to process the car repair payment. Thanks!

Help Remove an Educational Barrier for a Child

A hardworking mom who has courageously rebuilt her life after overcoming addiction is now thriving. She went back to school to continue her education, secured a full-time job, and is committed to giving her children a better future—one grounded in faith. She desires to give her children a Christian education and has been accepted into a local Christian school willing to enroll her two youngest children. A scholarship will cover most of their tuition once they are officially admitted. However, there is a $350 application fee per child, and she is still short $600. She has already contributed $100 toward the total cost, demonstrating her commitment. This request is for the remaining $600 in application fees so that her children can be given a fresh start and a Christ-centered education.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

A local family is seeking assistance in purchasing essential medical supplies needed to safely feed their young child. The child has a swallowing disorder that requires the use of a specialized food thickener to prevent aspiration and ensure safe feeding. While the family is actively working with healthcare and insurance providers to secure long-term coverage for the product, they are currently in need of financial support to help cover the cost in the meantime. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as they navigate this challenging time.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

A previous mom we helped some time ago has stated the bed we gave is now worn. A photo was provided to show that. She would appreciate a twin bed for her son (mattress and box springs and rails, or platform frame) and a comforter. This will help her son to get the sleep he needs to be healthy and feel secure.

PLEASE NOTE: RISE CHURCH CAN MEET THIS NEED WITH A BED WE ALREADY HAVE IN OUR INVENTORY. NO FURTHER DONATIONS ARE NEEDED.
