Story

3 Children 2 Adults

A kind and humble family of five is in need of bath towels. Times are tough financially, but they remain strong in their faith and hopeful for the future. The children are doing great—grades are up, behavior has improved, and there's peace at home. Recently, the father started a new job, a big step forward for them. This family rarely asks for anything, so we’re reaching out on their behalf. Providing towels may seem small, but it would mean so much to them. If you can help, your generosity will make a real difference in their lives.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

A parent here at the Mission needs underwear and bras, and we don't have any of these items in her size. Her two children also need summer clothing and shoes.

This family has been with us for a few weeks, and the items they brought in with them need to be discarded. We believe that every single person has sacred value, and we do all we can to preserve the dignity of the clients at the Mission. A key way we preserve their dignity is to give them the essential items they need.

The parent wears size M in ladies' underwear. Her bra size is 32A. We never receive this size when we get donations.

The children's sizes are as follows: *5t for girl's pants, shirts , dresses, and shorts. *7/8 for boy's pants and shirts. *Girl size 8 in shoes. *Boy size 2 in shoes.

We have requested clothing from Note in the Pocket for another family, and it took a month to get the items delivered. Our hope is this request will ensure this family has their essentials much more quickly.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

A previous mom we helped some time ago has stated the bed we gave is now worn. A photo was provided to show that. She would appreciate a twin bed for her son (mattress and box springs and rails, or platform frame) and a comforter. This will help her son to get the sleep he needs to be healthy and feel secure.

PLEASE NOTE: RISE CHURCH CAN MEET THIS NEED WITH A BED WE ALREADY HAVE IN OUR INVENTORY. NO FURTHER DONATIONS ARE NEEDED.
