Help Strengthen a Bio Family

I’m reaching out on behalf of a family in our community who is going through a tough time. They are a hardworking household with 3 children, they’re currently facing a hardship with their electricity bill. The total amount needed to avoid late fees & potential shutoff is $351.40 due by July 7th. With temperatures rising and the kids at home during summer break, this support would ensure they have a safe, livable home with working lights, AC, and the ability to refrigerate food and medication. Any amount, large or small, would make a huge difference. All donations will go directly toward the electric bill. Thank you for taking the time to consider helping this family stay safe and comfortable. Your kindness truly matters.
