Story

•
2 Children 2 Adults

Children's division is working with a family with two kids that are 2 and under. The 2-year-old is medically fragile, and wheelchair bound with a lot of medical equipment. The home has a roach infestation and needs to be thoroughly cleaned in order for the child to be able to stay on the home. The family is working on cleaning it but has asked for help with getting the roaches taken care of and a 10-yard dumpster. This family really needs the additional help in order to be able to stay in the home for the child and his high needs. Also, any resources for getting a wheelchair ramp built would be appreciated.

Support an Expecting Mom and Her Unborn Baby

This mother of three with another on the way is in need of support paying for diagnostic testing she had done on her car. We found out that her car is not worth fixing, but she cannot bare the burden of more financial stress. We are asking that someone would be willing to lift this burden and also be able to provide a bus pass for and her 8 year old child. The two other children are 5 and under so they would be able to ride the bus for free. This would help the mother continue the process of applying for jobs and getting around to meet her families basic needs.

It would be great if responder could help the mother with getting half priced fare for the bus pass.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

Hello, I am requesting a Visa gift card of $100-$200 (+activation fee) to cover the cost of ongoing weekly visitations for 2 teenage girls and their father who is currently detained. The girls are in the care of a family friend and having the added expense of $7.50 per 30 minute visit two-to three times a week is quickly adding up. A donation toward these this cost will ease the burden on the caregiver while maintaining the parent-child relationship. Thank you!

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

This mother has been working hard and is making great progress. She signed into a voluntary DHS program. She is on a fixed income due to disabilities. Even with that, she has started a part time job. The issue is that she doesn't have a lot of clothing. She was in an unsafe living situation and was able to save and move to her own apartment. But much of her belongings were left and she no longer has access to get them. This mother is open to any and all help. She is open to used clothing, to doing a thrift store trip, or a Walmart gift card. She is hopeful for any and all help, but we would like to try and get 4 shirts, 1 sweatpants, 2 jeans, one pair of black pants (black jeans preferred), a pack of black socks, and a pack of underwear. I'm estimating $200 new at Walmart, but can do thrift or used. Mother's clothing size is as follows: shirts: medium or large (medium preferred) Sweats: medium or large (large preferred) jeans: size 6, need to be high waisted socks: size 8- black preferred Underwear: medium or large (medium preferred)

Help Preserve a Foster Care Placement

We have been connected to a family who is fostering through DHHS. This foster family has placement of 3 little children (ages from 4-8) that they are in the process of adopting. They had their washing machine and air conditioning break down in the same week and only had the funds to replace one, so they prioritized the air conditioning for the summer heat wave we had this past week. The family had a high capacity 5.3 cu-ft top-load washing machine to be able to meet with laundry demands of their family and would like their replacement to have a similar capacity and similarly top-loading. The youngest child has some higher needs and frequently wets the bed which requires regular use of a washing machine for larger bedding items. The family consulted a technician who reported the costs of the repair for the washing machine would be at least $800 and the technician recommended buying a new one over paying for repairs. The listed cost is for a 5.3 cu-ft top-load with delivery from Lowe's.
