Story

•
2 Children 2 Adults

“Greene County Department of Social Services has been assisting a family of four (mother, father, 3-year-old, and infant) find permanent housing. The family has been working with the Agency for a few months and has shown complete compliance with all that is requested of them. Upon entry of the housing program, the family had a storage unit in Cairo, NY, but are now unable to access it due to falling behind on payment. The mother has taken on a full-time job to support the family, while the father provides care to both children. Items in the locked storage unit include supplies and necessities for the children like strollers, clothing, and other personal belongings. The family has been trying to rectify the missed payments, but much of their income has gone to the immediate needs of the children like diapers, wipes, new clothing/shoes, and food. At this time, the Agency and family are requesting assistance with paying the amount of $175 so they can access the storage unit for their belongings.”

Stabilize Housing Insecurity

A blessed opportunity to help a young, Christian family make it through a very difficult time in the heat of summer. A mother and father trying to secure a roof over their young children and feed their family. Tragically, the mother just lost her baby during delivery; father had to take time off from work to take care of her. He is back working but they are behind a few paychecks.

They need help to stay in a hotel for 2 weeks while they save money to rent an apartment (the apartment isn't ready yet). They could also use help with essentials and food.

If we can help them now, it will stabilize their income and resources for the future.

Help Preserve a Foster Care Placement

We currently are fostering 3 children and want to continue to make their experience meaningful. We have a 12 year old girl who could use some basketball shoes (size 7.5) and probably extra socks. We also have a sibling set ( girl 2, boy 1) who could use some pajamas. She wears 3T and he’s in 18month. Diapers and wipes are always needed. Thank you so much!
