Help Make a Foster Care Placement

CarePortal Community, We’re reaching out with a special request on behalf of one of our incredible Sanctuary families who are caring for four little ones, all under the age of 2. This family adopted their now 2-year-old daughter through The Sanctuary back in December and lovingly reopened their home in May to continue serving children in need. Since then, they’ve welcomed twin 9-month-old babies, one of whom has been diagnosed with shaken baby syndrome, and just this month, they accepted placement of a newborn. As you can imagine, getting out of the house with four little ones is no small task. To help make transportation and outings more manageable, we’re hoping to bless this family with a sturdy, multi-seat wagon. This would be a tremendous help in navigating daily life and would allow them to create meaningful, healing experiences outside of the home.

If you're willing and able, we would love for the wagon (Walmart link below) to be purchased and delivered directly to our Fort Bend foster office (address provided for donors). From there, one of our Sanctuary-vetted volunteers will deliver the gift to the family. Thank you for showing up in such tangible ways for our families — your generosity makes a lasting difference.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

I’m currently working with a young mother of two who has been doing an admirable job saving money in preparation for a move. She’s turning 21 soon and is focused on finding a home within her budget. Unfortunately, due to ongoing health challenges, she’s limited in the number of hours she can work.

There have also been delays in receiving support funds from DCFS, which has made it difficult for her to purchase clothing for her growing children. A gift card to Target or Burlington would be extremely helpful in meeting this immediate need. With this support, she would be able to continue focusing on her long-term savings goals.
