Resource Linkage is working with a single mother with a young daughter. The mother is afraid she is going to be evicted from her home, her hours have been severely reduced and she is not bringing home enough money to make ends meet. The rent is almost 2 months past due. The mother does not speak English and is being linked to community resources for Hispanic families, any help is appreciated.

I am writing on behalf of a family who receives services from our food pantry and is currently in need of a window air conditioner unit.

The family lives in a duplex with their two-year-old child, and the mother is 22 weeks pregnant. As temperatures have continued to rise, traditional window fans are no longer providing sufficient relief—especially for the young child and expectant mother.

To ensure their health and well-being during this extreme heat, they are kindly requesting assistance in obtaining a window air conditioning unit. Link provided

The mother in this case is doing really well and is starting to get more visitation/overnight visits with her son. The mother has a bassinet and pack'n'play for the baby but could really benefit from a crib as the child grows bigger.

The father of a 6 year old girl is currently receiving services from our agency. He is homeless and is working to create stability for himself so that he can sign up for classes at Santa Rosa Jr. College (already being paid for by 2nd Chance Program). He is currently "couch surfing" and having a difficult time because he lost his phone charger, so is frequently missing important calls and having a difficult time keeping in contact with his probation officer, the social worker, and other service providers and his daughter. A phone charger (USB-C) and a small portable battery pack so he can recharge on the go would be really helpful for him so that he can have reliable communication with these different providers.

The Department is working with a father with a 2-year-old daughter. He is currently in need of financial assistance with size 4 diapers and unscented baby wipes. The father is currently working full-time and going to school but is struggling with this expense due to recently taking on his daughter full-time. Assistance with this need so that this father can keep his child in home and focus on her needs and this case is greatly appreciated!

Kristy Crill of The Dive and a fellow member of CCA connected me with a woman and her adult age special needs son who left a DV relationship in the beginning of this year and accepted a new job here in Savannah as a LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) with an expected start date of June 23. She and her son have been staying at an extended stay hotel and have exhausted their funds on food lodging and transportation. Her car broke and she relies on uber to get to and from work. This woman is looking for a one week hotel stay down in Richmond Hill near her new job. She is also in need of your prayers.

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.

A single mom with an 8-month-old is living with her mother and does not have a bed for herself. She needs a full or queen-size bed (frame, mattress, and box springs) plus bedding. A small floor fan (not a ceiling fan) is also needed for the bedroom. This mom is part of the Napier community that Harpeth Hills serves.
