This is a request from RestoreOKC for a teenager who is in high need of wrestling shoes. He has been in the wrestling program for a few years, and the current condition of his shoes are not safe to use. This student spends his time with his wrestling team to avoid the negative influences of the neighborhood peer pressure. He has worked very hard in this sport, and the opportunity to have new Wrestling shoes would help increase his athleticism along with the added confidence and comfort they would bring. Shoe size is a men's 10 1/2. Anything would be appreciated, thank you for your time.

We are requesting support for a 22-year-old young mother with three children under the age of 5 (4 yrs, 3 yrs, 7 mo) who is facing multiple challenges and is in urgent need of assistance. She is currently employed at a daycare where her children also attend. Unfortunately, the daycare will be closing soon, resulting in the loss of both her job and childcare. She has a past-due balance of over $700 at a previous daycare center, making it difficult to find new affordable childcare options.

Additionally, she is unable to afford basic needs, including laundry services, diapers, and food. She is currently pending food stamp benefits, which have been delayed due to unresolved child support issues with the fathers of her children. She has ongoing issues with one of the fathers and is preparing to move out. He has refused to provide financial support, and the timeline for when child support will begin is uncertain.

This young mother is doing her best to provide for her children during this difficult time. We are asking for $500 in financial assistance to help her meet immediate needs such as food, rent, diapers, and other basic living expenses.

Needs: Financial assistance ($500) Diapers and wipes (3t and 3) Clothing: Girls 6t, Boys 3t, baby boy 9 mo - needs underwear, socks, any clothing Mother is size large Open to picking up the laundry and returning it if possible Needs stackable washer/dryer (gas) Grocery support Encouragement and community support

Three children ( 10 year old boy, 9 year old boy and 8 year old girl) are sleeping on the floor each night with no beds of their own. They need a bed. A bed would give them comfort, warmth, and a place to feel safe. It would make a big difference in their daily lives and help them feel cared for and supported. We are grateful for our community and the care and coffee initiative.

Three children in this family are currently sharing one bed. They are in need of an additional bed to help create a more comfortable and restful sleep environment. Providing a bed would support their physical and emotional well-being by giving them space to rest properly, which is essential for healthy development, focus in school, and overall stability. We are grateful for our community and the care and coffee initiative. This is for a 13 year old girl, 11 and 7 year old.

This family is in need of a working refrigerator/freezer combination. Mother works full time, but does not drive, and has not been able to learn how to use public transportation. Mother walks to and from work, and will pick up items at the store on her way home. There are three children in the home under the age of five, and mother needs to be able to store food in the refrigerator and freezer to feed her children. Mother is limited on what food items she buys because of not having a working refrigerator or she will try to use everything she purchases, that same day. Unfortunately the family is unable to pay for this purchase, as they are working on repairing their hot water heater. By assisting this family, they would be able to plan mealtimes for the children more cost effectively.

The dimensions for the refrigerator/freezer: 65 inches tall, 28 inches wide, 35 inches deep

A family with two children recently took in two dogs from their sister. The dogs almost had their sister evicted from her apartment, and now they are faced a similar dilemma. If they don't find a home for the dogs, they could be evicted. The family is looking for a home for the two dogs. They searched rescue sites and no kill shelters but hasn't received any help or support. Please help support this family by either taking in the dogs or by spreading the word.

Hello! Church, we have an opportunity to come alongside a single mom who is a member at Wildwood & help support her as she cares for the older bio siblings (brothers ages 9 & 12) of her adopted son. The brothers are still in foster care and need care for a period of 10 days in July. To say yes, the single mom needs childcare for the boys while she is at work. There are openings at a local day camp for both boys. The cost for 7 days of camp for both boys is $700. Please keep this family in your prayers - pray specifically for the time the three brothers will have together. If you feel led, please consider giving financially so that we can help support this family, allowing all three siblings to have 10 days together this summer. There are two ways to give financially:

1. Financial contributions can be made to Wildwood's CarePortal Fund by clicking on this link and selecting the green button that says "Give to our CarePortal Fund." Go To Link
2. You can contribute online at Wildwood's giving page and in the memo line put "Adoptive & Foster Care Ministry": Go To Link

Please reach out to Naomi at ******@email.com with any questions. Thank you for your support of the Adoptive & Foster Care community at Wildwood!

One of our very own families, who faithfully serves every weekend, is currently facing a difficult season. They are in need of support with rent and groceries this month to get back on track and not fall behind.

Earlier this year, we had the opportunity to serve two families in our community. While our assistance was very much appreciated, it does not alleviate the on-going need for these families. Both families have young children who are home during the summer months. To ensure that they have access to hot meals during the summer while they are out of school, Heartland is initiating a request to provide food gift cards to each family throughout the duration of the summer.

A father at Point Church has recently regained custody of his three children and could use some clothing items for them. He is in need of a few shirts, a few pairs of shorts, a pair of pajamas, a few pairs of socks and underwear, and a pair of shoes for his 5-year-old daughter (clothing size 5-6, shoe size 11-13), 7-year-old daughter (clothing size 8-10, underwear size 10-12, shoe size 12-13), and 10-year-old son (clothing size 14, shoe size 5). Secondhand clothing in good condition is fine. It would be a blessing for them to have these items by July 11.
