6-year old child needs a new bed. The relative caregivers recently bought him a new twin size bed due to him outgrowing his old bed. However, the young child broke his bed with his behavior issues. The caregivers are unable to afford a new bed at this time due to having to pay for additional expenses for his care. In order to maintain and support the placement, the home needs to remain in compliance. This would help the child stay with relative caregivers to maintain family ties and remain safe in placement.

A single mom is working hard to make ends meet and just recently got a job. She is trying to provide the best she can for her kids. Since not having steady income she has fallen short on getting things that are needed. She could use some help with diapers for one of the kids. If you are able to help please let me know.

We have a single mother of three boys (ages 4, 3, and 1). The mother is putting her life back together after being involved with domestic violence. The mother and her children are currently staying with the relative, but the mother is in the process of attempting to secure houses for her and her children. At this time, the mother needs assistance with $30.00 application fee. Assisting with the costs of the rental application will help the family move closer to securing housing.

First time single mother with minimal family support. She is in need of a car seat to safely transport her 18-month-old daughter. If possible, any additional essential baby items would be greatly appreciated as well.

A hardworking couple in our community is raising six children—two older and four still living at home. Their washing machine recently broke, and they’ve been washing clothes by hand or taking loads to the laundromat, which is time-consuming and costly. Providing a quality used washer and some laundry detergent would make a big difference in their daily life and help this family focus on what matters most—caring for their kids. Let’s come together to lighten their load, one wash at a time.

The family consists of 3 minors (ages 13, 11, and 7). They are currently detained from parents and in reunification with their mother. They were living with an adult sibling in the family home. Unfortunately, the adult sibling was in tragic car accident and has been hospitalized since May 2025. He is expected to live but is currently unable to talk and in need of lengthy recovery.

A maternal aunt and maternal grandmother have stepped in to live in the house with the kids to ensure they can remain in the home and be with family. The maternal aunt and grandmother have been trying to make ends meet but are behind on the rent for the apartment and are having a difficult time obtaining enough money for basic necessities such as groceries and gas. The family unit is strong but struggling, and the Department has not been able to yet find any additional funding for the family. Our office has been trying to ensure they can remain in the home, but the family would really benefit from any additional funding assistance that can be provided. Thank you.

A young family of 2 children ages 1 and 7 years old are requesting a dryer as they moved into a house from an apartment. The couple have been here from Venezuela for about 2.5 years and help out at Centro Cristiano a Las Naciones with leading music. They moved from an apartment which had a washer and dryer and now they need to provide for their own. The father is looking for work and does odd jobs to help pay for rent, bills, food, clothing, etc. A dryer will help mom take care of her kids so that they will be able to attend school and help their hygiene. Thank you for your help.

There is a 30-ish year-old young man living at apartments in Castle Rock. He is paralyzed from the chest down and in a wheelchair. He was granted special permission to be at these apartments even though he doesn't qualify due to his age. He receives food from Help & Hope on a monthly basis when they visit him. His family lives in Elizabeth and has even less money than this young man. It is noted that sometimes he will give his money to his mom/dad so they can eat.

Help & Hope has been going to this gentleman's apartment on Wednesdays when they deliver food to him, and have been making his bed and doing light chores for him.

Looking for a weekly/monthly volunteer(s) who would like to visit this young man and assist with light chores?

We have two Fostering Together youth that are starting new schools in August. They have both had recent growth spurts and are in need of new clothes and shoes for back to school. We want then to feel comfortable and confident with this fresh start. Please consider donating any amount towards this need. Thank you so much for your generosity and prayers for educational success for these sweet brothers!

We have a single mom with her two children and their pet that we just moved into an apartment, but the landlord wants a pet deposit and will not waive it although he did discount it. Any small donations will be greatly appreciated
