Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

A youth has been requesting driver’s education for at least six months. It has been hard to find resources for which she would qualify, but the family’s social worker discovered the DriveSafe be.Driving 30-hour online program. The basic package (30 hours of online self-paced driver’s ed and the written exam, enough for the youth to obtain her permit) is $109. This would be hugely beneficial in empowering this youth, providing safe instruction, and ensuring that she can move forward toward independence.

Help Reunify a Bio Family

One of our foster children is preparing to reunify with her biological mother in the coming weeks. The family has made significant progress toward their case plan goals and is now in the final stages before reunification is complete. The mother has already purchased a bed frame, and the department has been able to assist with several other household items. At this time, the family is in need of a full-size mattress to complete the child’s bedroom setup. This final support would help ensure a smooth and comfortable transition as the child returns home and the family begins this new chapter together.

Stabilize Housing Insecurity

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.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

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!!!

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

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.
