3 Children 2 Adults

This sibling group has been removed from parent's care and placed in relative care. The children have adjusted well to being there and have stable daily routines. Recently the air conditioning in the home has stopped working and the relatives do not have the funds to repair it due to the added financial strain of taking in 3 children.

With it being summer and very high temperatures looming, the family is in need of assistance with repairing the Air Conditioning unit.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

DHS is trying to assist a family with getting a window air conditioning unit. The house does not have air conditioning, and the family indicated that the landlord stated that it was their responsibility. They currently just have the window up and a fan in the home for air but that brings in flies. There is a one-year-old child, their 19-year-old parent and a grandmother in the home that is an amputee and has a caregiver. The family is unable to meet the expense of purchasing a window air conditioning unit.

Client is a brand-new mother to a 2-week-old baby girl. She is currently co-sleeping due to lack of a crib and is concerned about her baby’s safety. Providing her with a crib would greatly increase her child’s safety and give the mother peace of mind.

Support an Expecting Mom and Her Unborn Baby

A single woman is going to become a first-time mother in August. The father of the baby struggles with addiction and is not a source of support for her at this time. She is working toward employment and saving as much as she can, but that has been a challenge with the rise of living expenses in Denver. She is having trouble covering basic costs such as rent, gas and groceries. Her biggest need right now is a bedside bassinet for the baby to sleep in safely as she transitions home from the hospital. We kindly ask for a new item. Thank you in advance for showing this mother the faithful provision of God through His family! Go To Link

Help Improve an Adult’s Well-Being

Newly arrived Special Immigrant Visa holder family of 7 who fled from Afghanistan (US allies) is needing a bunkbed for 4 daughters to settle into a single bedroom in their 2 BR-1BA apartment this week.

Unfortunately, due to limited space in bedroom (needing to fit 2 sets of bunk beds), twin bunk beds will fit better than full bunk beds, so probably not flexible on that aspect of this request.

Depending on the bunk bed frame that you donate, we may or may not need box springs, so I didn't add those explicitly to this request.

Thanks!

Help Support a Youth Aging Out

We have a youth accepted to Georgia Gwinnett College starting in August. She will definitely need a laptop for school. Although her tuition should be covered by the state through the Independent Living Program (ILP), she will be living on campus and will have to pay her own dorm fees, ($400 per month). She will have a job on campus to try to cover those fees, but is also working now trying to save up for a car. She would greatly appreciate any and all help you could provide to set her up well to succeed at school. Please join us in praying for this youth!

Help Remove an Educational Barrier for a Child

Backpacks & BBQ is an annual outreach event hosted by Middletown Nazarene Church that brings together our church, community, and local partners to support students and families preparing for the school year. We provide free backpacks, serve a full cookout-style meal, and offer a safe, fun, and welcoming environment for children in need in our community.

Each summer, hundreds of neighbors come together at our church for this day of joy and generosity. Children leave ready to start school with confidence and dignity — and families leave knowing they are seen, supported, and loved.

More information about the event can be found here: Go To Link

As part of this event, we want to provide sanitary and hygiene products for the students, so they can go back to school with confidence.
