The foster home is needing a dresser for a child in custody. The child came into the family with a small bag of clothes and the family is currently building up her wardrobe in preparation for the school year. They were originally storing the clothes in a small 3 drawer dresser, but it is quickly getting filled. The child shares a room with one of the family’s biological children and they do not have the closet space to fit all of her clothes. This dresser would help accommodate her items as well as further support this placement as the family works to reinforce their home in hopes that they are able to adopt the child.

The mother is a young parent and on a very fixed income. The mother is in need of assistance with formula and baby cereal. The mother is not able to afford these items on her own. Assistance is being requested from the community to help this young mother.

There is a family of seven that is on a limited income that would benefit from assistance with purchasing school supplies. The family has provided a list for four of their children. This would help the family to free up income to pay bills, provide for basic needs, and to perhaps get a new vehicle or fix their current vehicle. This would also help the children to be successful in the educational setting. The school supplies need are as listed: 18 large elmer glue sticks, 7 pink erasers, 9 containers of antibacterial wipes, 10 kleenex, 12 black expo markers, 1 set multicoloered expo markers, 2 highlighters, 2 pairs of earbuds, 2 pairs of headphones, 5 24 pack colored pencils, 6 24 pack crayons, 6 24 pack pencils, 1 red pen, 1 package baby wipes, 1 set watercolor paint, 1 package playdough, 2 childrens scissors, 1 green, red, and blue pocket folder, 2 pencil boxes, 4 composition notebooks, 1 package wide ruled paper, 1 3 subject wide ruled spiral notebook. Anything would help.

Hello, we have a single mother in need of assistance in obtaining a recliner due to previous back surgery. She prefers to sleep in an upright position due to the discomfort. The single mother is working full-time but has a limited income to provide for her 4 children. This single mother has started over after being in an abusive relationship. She has done well starting over and creating a safe environment for her and her children. Thank you so much for your generosity and kindness for this family.

Mother had her items stolen, including her phone. She has been working hard to get back on her feet for the sake of her daughter. We are reaching out to the community for help in replacing her phone and supporting her in providing food for her daughter. Your assistance would be greatly appreciated in supporting this family during this difficult time. Mother had her items stolen, including her phone.

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.
