Story

•
4 Children 2 Adults

This family is in urgent need of vehicle repair assistance. The primary caregiver, who is responsible for the care of four young children: 2(M), 5(F), 6(F) & 9(F), works approximately an hour from the home. She relies heavily on the family’s vehicle to get to work and to meet the children’s daily needs, including school drop-offs, appointments, and other essential errands. The vehicle in question are typically used for emergencies and transporting the children. Unfortunately, the car is no longer functioning properly. While the exact issue is unknown, it is suspected to be a problem with the transmission. Without a working vehicle, the caregiver is missing work opportunities, significantly impacting the family’s primary source of income. Reliable transportation is critical for this family’s stability and well-being. Request: Assistance with vehicle diagnostics and repair. Any support—mechanical, financial, or in-kind—would make a tremendous difference in helping this caregiver return to work and ensuring the children’s needs are met consistently.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

A courageous mother of three is preparing to move into a home she will one day own through a rent-to-own opportunity, a dream she’s worked hard to make a reality. Over the past few years, we've had the honor of walking alongside her and witnessing powerful moments of growth. She is nearing one year of sobriety, has bravely left a domestic violence situation, and has fought to get the support her children need to thrive. Now, she’s taking the next step toward stability - securing a home where she can plant roots and truly take ownership! However, the home needs a lot of work. Demolition, paint, cabinets, flooring, and more. It’s not move-in ready, and we can’t do this alone. We need the community’s help to turn this space into a safe, welcoming home for her and her children. This is more than just a renovation. It’s a chance to invest in someone who is becoming a leader in her community - someone committed to walking with and supporting other families on their journeys. Let’s come together and help build a strong foundation for this incredible mom and her kids. With your help, we can turn this house into a place of healing, hope, and long-term flourishing!
