Story

5 Children 1 Adult

This is a single mother of five children. She works long hours and has been providing items for the new home she has with her five children as she can afford to. The family could benefit from twin beds or two bunk beds and a twin bed. (Mom has said they are not too picky and the agency worker has requested for the beds also.) They would love a kitchen table, pots and pans, a microwave, a washer and/or dryer. One of the children also has a job and is trying to assist with providing some items. The family had been displaced for months so this is a situation where they are starting over. The family has a refrigerator however it leaks all over the floor.

Help Support a Youth Aging Out

We have a young man that has been through a lot in the past two years he has been in care. He has made some poor choices and he's made some wonderful choices along the way. Right now he has decided that once he ages out, he would like to join the military and he feels that the best path for him from here to there is to attend Thunderbird Academy. He impressed everyone at his interview and has been accepted for admission and he will begin attending on July 20. Thunderbird has provided us with an extensive and extremely specific list of clothing items and supplies that he will need to bring with him. Any help that can be provided in obtaining these items for him would be incredibly appreciated. I can provide details to anyone interested. Thank you so much!

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

A single mom, of a beautiful little 4 year old girl is in need of help. She was in our program, after being homeless for a year, living in her car and after a year at SFTSM, she graduated October, 2024. Apartment rent is high, at $1,800 and her FoodShare and medical has been denied, stating that she makes too much money, even though her paychecks barely cover her rent. She worked on earning her GED while at SFTSM, but was a math test short before she moved out...she didn't forget her goal and as of last week is a GED holder! She did it! At 26 years old, while holding down a full-time job and raising a beautiful and smart little mini-her. Her biggest win, was while at SFTSM, she found Jesus and accepted Him into her life, being baptized! She only needs a little help. She's behind on rent, because of food costs, so help with food. She recently asked for a desk, so she could study not only her Bible, but for the ASVAB, as it's her lifelong goal to enter the military, we supplied her the desk, but she's in need of a computer chair and then some help with gas. Link for the ASVAB book:Go To Link Groceries- Walmart or Woodmans gift cards would be great!

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

A single mom of 2 boys (ages 1 & 3); has been in the USA on a VISA for 7+ years. Came to SFTSM after living in her car for 6 months with her boys. We renewed her VISA back in December, but waiting for the renewal yet. She has gone to school for nursing as well as construction. She's having a REALLY hard time finding consistent work without her VISA and is on the verge of losing her car. We've helped her with a couple of months already, but without consistent work, she's behind again. She has been interviewing left and right for jobs and she is on the verge of working now, but it's just not in time to make July's car payment. She can't lose her vehicle, not only for the 2 little boys to get to daycare, appointments, but now with starting work soon, she needs it more than ever. This vehicle will continue to set her up for success and needs it to better her future; without reliable transportation, she would only be going backwards. We're working on securing funds for August and potentially September's car payments as well, so that even though she should be working by then, she has other debts to pay off and a couple of months of a car payment would just set her up nicely; we've applied for (2) different grants through other organizations. Gas cards to Kwik Trip would also be greatly appreciated.
