Story

•
8 Children 1 Adult

Dear Friends,

We have the privilege of supporting a courageous and loving single mother who is expecting a new baby while raising seven incredible children, ages 2 to 17. Despite her unwavering dedication and strength, the family is currently facing significant challenges.

This resilient mom is working two retail jobs and, with a new baby on the way (her eighth!), is in urgent need of stable housing. We are seeking support for low-cost housing for at least the first four months after the newborn's arrival, with a target rent range of $750-$800 per month. This crucial support will provide a stable and safe environment during a critical time for the new baby and the entire family, allowing this mother to focus on her children's well-being without the added burden of finding immediate, affordable housing.

This mother is faith-filled, determined, and deeply committed to her children’s well-being. Your generosity would be a powerful reminder that they are seen, valued, and not alone.

If you feel led to help, your support will meet a very real need and uplift a family full of love, hope, and potential.

Estimated Value: $3,000 - $3,200 (for four months of housing at $750-$800/month)

With heartfelt thanks, Circle of Hope Gainesville FL

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

Bio-mom is requesting assistance meeting her teen son's initial needs during family reunification process. Mom has been working hard to stay on the right track. This means attending a number of regular classes and appointments that considerably interfere with her ability to work. Her 14yo son could greatly use men's size 10 shoes and socks, 30x32 jeans, men's medium sweats and men's medium shirts and sweaters. He is also in need of shampoo and body wash and does not have a preferred brand. Helping to meet these needs will allow mom to keep her focus on bettering her circumstances and promote self-confidence, personal hygiene and improved self-worth for her son.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

In our program we provide a snack each day that our children come to our Summer Kid's Club. These children are in our care during many hours that they would be left unattended and many only eating once per day. We provide lunch and snack. We also bridge the learning gap that happens to many during the summer. Keeping their little bellies full helps to open their minds to instruction and care. We prefer a fruit or veggie along with something like gold fish or peanut butter crackers. We really would be happy with any snacks provided.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

A singe mother of 2 with the 7 year old who has epilepsy and requires specialized treatment. During the last two months the younger child required multiple doctors visits and specialty visits to Stanford Children's Neurosurgery Center. This has put a major financial strain and hardship on the mother. With additional unforeseen costs of travel, medical bills, prescription costs, and lost time from work. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated to help this family with this urgent need as they are facing eviction. We would like to help reduce any additional stress that would trigger any seizures episodes from occurring from having to move. Your help will keep this young family from becoming unhoused. Thank you in advance for any help you can be!

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

A courageous mother of three is preparing to move into a home she will one day own through a rent-to-own opportunity, a dream she’s worked hard to make a reality. Over the past few years, we've had the honor of walking alongside her and witnessing powerful moments of growth. She is nearing one year of sobriety, has bravely left a domestic violence situation, and has fought to get the support her children need to thrive. Now, she’s taking the next step toward stability - securing a home where she can plant roots and truly take ownership! However, the home needs a lot of work. Demolition, paint, cabinets, flooring, and more. It’s not move-in ready, and we can’t do this alone. We need the community’s help to turn this space into a safe, welcoming home for her and her children. This is more than just a renovation. It’s a chance to invest in someone who is becoming a leader in her community - someone committed to walking with and supporting other families on their journeys. Let’s come together and help build a strong foundation for this incredible mom and her kids. With your help, we can turn this house into a place of healing, hope, and long-term flourishing!
