Help Strengthen a Bio Family

A mother and her two young daughters (ages 3 and 6 months) recently relocated to Collin County for safety reasons and are currently living in their car. Mom has secured a job and childcare but urgently needs gas assistance to get to work and daycare each day. Supporting this need will help the family maintain stability and move closer to permanent housing. Any help with gas cards or fuel support would be greatly appreciated.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

This devoted mother of three is doing everything she can to keep her children safe, warm, and off the streets. Currently living in a hotel, she works tirelessly cleaning homes to provide for her family, often prioritizing their needs above her own. Right now, she has enough money to cover only one more night, and after that, she and her children will have nowhere to go. She’s not asking for much—just enough support to bridge the gap and maintain a roof over their heads. With your help, she can secure a few more days of safety and stability while she works to get back on her feet. Every little bit brings her closer to hope and further away from crisis.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

A kin placement who took a boy (DOB: 9/30/2021), a boy (DOB: 5/12/2019), and a girl (DOB:7/15/2009) under emergency circumstances, is in need of assistance. Taking the children into her home significantly increased household expenses, especially grocery costs. Provider unexpectedly had her food stamps stolen and was told she may not receive her benefits again until August. She is concerned about keeping enough food in the house until her financial support kicks in. A gift card for groceries in the amount of $300 from Walmart of King Soopers would be a huge blessing for her to ensure the children are always fed. Thank you in advance for your consideration!

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

Hello, I have 2 children who are placed here in Colorado Springs with their grandparents on an ICPC from Rhode Island. These children are in need of some school uniforms as they go to CIVA. These uniform pieces can be purchased at Walmart and do not require a school logo! They spent half a year in this school last year and were lucky enough to have some pieces from a closet at the school, but nothing has been donated to the school yet and they have grown so much since the end of last year. The boy is in size 10/12 and the girl is in size 7/8. They can have khaki or navy pants and a polo shirt in red, gold, navy, or royal. They are also in need of shoes. The boy wears a size 4 and the girl wears a size 1. Any help with these items is greatly appreciated! On the Walmart website the pants run about $15 each, and shirts are about $5 each. It also looks like shoes can be anywhere from $10-30. Again thank you so much for the time reading this and we appreciate any help that is offered.
