A local daycare is providing summer field trips to help children explore their community, build social skills, and engage in hands-on learning experiences. One hardworking mother has managed to cover the cost of daycare for both of her children, but she cannot afford the additional fees for the summer outings. As a result, her children are unable to participate in any of the planned trips. Support is needed to help ensure these children don’t miss out on these valuable experiences.

A courageous and hardworking mother recently achieved reunification with all five of her children after a long journey. She has just moved into her own place and is doing her best to provide a safe, stable environment—but she needs our help. Currently, mom is sleeping on the couch, and although she has a bunk bed frame, it has no mattresses for two of the children. Another child needs a twin bed. Additionally, her youngest child needs a car seat to ensure safe transportation.

I have known this sweet family for over 10 years through Lincoln. Currently, this mom and dad have 2 girls who are still at Lincoln, while the other 2 are almost grown and doing well. One of the younger girls went for a routine eye appointment that didn't go so well. Her vision was significantly blocked, so see was referred to a ped ophthalmologist, thinking maybe it was cataracts. It was determined not to be cataracts and her condition has worsen to not being able to even see light. Due to her ages, she has now been referred to Vanderbilt to see a ped retinal specialist on Tuesday for what is believed to be a detached retina. The family is scared and defiantly don't have money for this unexpected trip. Mom and Dad both have income, but not enough to pay for 2 nights hotel in Nashville, gas, food, etc. The dad has also picked up some extra work, but still not enough. This family would be more than grateful for any assistance to help with this trip. Thank you for your care and support.

There is a family with four children, 3 of which are special needs, that got placed in police protective custody this week due to abuse. The children were removed and all 4 (ages 6,4,4,3) are needing beds for their placements. This is an evolving situation and other needs may arise, but the beds are the most immediate need. Thank you for any help you can provide!

We have a mother who needs assistance with the furniture delivery fee. A non-profit organization offers furniture for free, but charges a delivery fee.

Request: Support for Foster Family Temporarily Caring for Two Young Nieces

A generous foster family has recently stepped up to care for their two young nieces—ages 2 and 3—while their parents are navigating a medical crisis with a new baby in the hospital. This family is already providing love and stability through foster care, and this unexpected addition has stretched their resources even more.

We’re hoping to rally some support to help them care for these little ones during this time. Here are a few specific needs that would be a huge blessing:

🧸 Fun Activities

Paw Patrol or animal-themed toys, books, or quiet activities (great for keeping the girls busy during hospital visits)

🩳 Clothing Needs

Size 3T pajamas for both girls

🧼 Essentials

Size 4 diapers

Swim diapers

Baby wipes

Truly, any amount of help is appreciated. This family didn’t hesitate to say “yes” when their nieces needed them, and now we have a chance to say “yes” to them. Thank you for considering how you might help meet these needs with love and generosity!

A local family in need has been identified by our church. She lost her job and is trying to sell her house because otherwise she is going to lose it. This is one of those situations where circumstances have snowballed into a big mess. She's trying to get back on her feet, but the burden is heavy and discouraging. She needs a hand up. They have food for today and tomorrow. We would like to offer assistance with alleviating some of the bills that are piling up and helping the family to secure quality food options.

We are seeking the funds to pay their electricity bill so that the power can remain on, the phone bill so that she can maintain contact with their realtor as they try to sell the house, and funds for a grocery gift card.

Hey BC fam! We have a foster family in our church that has welcomed newborn twins into their home and is in urgent need of formula support. The babies consume one $40 can per day. The family is asking for $1,200 over the next 4 weeks as WIC will cover the cost after that. Your generosity will help provide essential nourishment during this critical time. Thank you for loving our families well and we know you will continue to do so. The family is grateful for anything!!!

Single mom with two children facing eviction if she doesn't get help with her rent. Children out of school, and challenges with child care, caused her to miss work. She only has half of her rent. She needs to help with $600 which is the the other half of the rent and late charges. The children will be going to summer camp in July allowing mom to get back to her normal working hours.

Hey team, we have a family in our church that serves as a foster family. The birth mom for the child is in need of a convertible car seat so they can have the child for visitation. This would meet a huge need for this mom and child and serve the foster family as well. If you happen to have one in good condition that you could give her that is great or here is an option if you would be available and willing to purchase one. You can just get it to me and I'll make sure the foster family gets it. Thanks so much team.
