Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

The children came into the dependency system with the caregiver in October of 2024. The caregiver has had children since they entered the system. The caregiver is currently not receiving any funding. The caregiver is currently struggling financially as she is only making $18 an hr. She lost her home due to hurricane Milton and has been staying in a hotel since January with the children. The cost of the hotel is $100 per day Monday-Thursday and $150 per day Friday-Sunday. She is currently struggling to keep up with these payments and has been in danger of being kicked out of the hotel this week. She is having difficulty saving for a deposit for an apartment since she has to ensure placement at the hotel each day. The current request is $630.70 to cover the caregiver’s hotel fees for another week. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

We are requesting assistance again for the family of five who have recently faced significant medical and financial challenges. Both parents were unable to work for several months due to serious health issues, including hospitalization and a delay in receiving necessary treatment. As a result of their illnesses and loss of income, the family fell behind on rent for June and July. The parents are now on the path to recovery and working to regain stability, but they need support to catch up and avoid further hardship. We are seeking $500 in assistance to help cover their past-due rent. Our organization will also be supporting with other needs. Any contribution, big or small, would make a meaningful difference for this family during a difficult time. Thank you for your kindness and generosity.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

A local family of five is in urgent need of support. Veronica and her husband are hardworking parents of three children. Recently, the family experienced a medical crisis that caused a serious financial setback. Veronica’s husband was hospitalized for nearly two weeks due to a severe gallbladder infection and complications in his lungs. The first hospital the family went to refused to oeprate on the father, so they seeked help elsewhere. He was able to undergo surgery at another facility, but was out of work for over a month due to his infection and illness. During this time, the mother also became ill and was unable to work as well. She has now recovered and is working full-time at a local daycare, doing everything she can to get back on track. However, during the period of hardships and unemployment, the family of 5 fell behind on their Georgia Power bill and owes $300. This family is doing their best to regain stability, but they need help to bridge this gap. Any support would be a tremendous blessing.
