Help Prevent a Child From Entering Foster Care

Good morning, wonderful people. We hope your July is going well. DCCCA in Mission, Kansas, is seeking your incredible support to help a mother of six cover the cost of a domestic violence assessment. This mother and her children have experienced significant trauma, as you can imagine. Currently, DCCCA is providing social services and therapeutic support to the children. We are reaching out for your assistance to help this mother get back on her feet. You could be the light at the end of the tunnel for her family, providing them with the support and care they need. Thank you for taking the time to read this message and for partnering with us. You are the hands and feet of our Lord, and for that, we are truly grateful.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

This case was brought to the department following concerns of unsanitary living conditions at the fathers home. The children are now living with their mother in the City of Charlottesville, however, the families goal is to have the fathers home cleaned up so the oldest child can return home with her father. The family is in need of financial assistance, as they have been having issues with their cars and need extra money for repairs. To help offset the cost of those repairs, we are requesting clothing for 2 of the children, which would be helpful as they need new clothes for the summer and before school begins. The oldest is 16 and wears women's size 14-16. The other child is 10 and wears a youth size 12-14.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

The child on this has been in the care of the godmother and the mother will not help. The mother does not provide any help or necessities for this child and leaved the 24-yr old godmother to fend for herself. The godmother's family helps as much as they can but that also only goes so far. This child barely knows the mother and the godmother is doing the best she can and just needs a little help. The car seat will allow for the godmother to safely transport the child.

Help Preserve a Foster Care Placement

We currently are fostering 3 children and want to continue to make their experience meaningful. We have a 12 year old girl who could use some basketball shoes (size 7.5) and probably extra socks. We also have a sibling set ( girl 2, boy 1) who could use some pajamas. She wears 3T and he’s in 18month. Diapers and wipes are always needed. Thank you so much!
