Story

•
2 Children 1 Adult

Father just recently obtained custody of his two twin seven year old boys. Due to some family issues, father had not seen the children in almost two years. They are now embarking on their new life together. Unfortunately, due to the sudden change, father has limited items for the children. He has what the children came with, but otherwise would benefit from some assistance in adjusting to the change in his home. The children are very excited to be with their father. They are in need of some basics such as socks, underwear, jackets, shoes, and some other summer clothing items. Each boy wears a size 13.5 shoe and one wears a size 7 clothing and the other is in size 8. Father is also utilizing other community resources to help assist in other areas. He desires to have a home where the children feel safe, happy, and comfortable.

Help Reunify a Bio Family

CASA has a case with three children who were removed from their mother's care due to her substance use, mental health struggles, educational neglect and regular neglect. The mother has since passed away and the father is taking in two of the children. He has had to miss a lot of his hourly pay job to get the kids settled into his home and resources/appointments. He could use help with groceries for the home in the form of a Walmart or King Soopers gift card. Thank you for considering.

Help Make a Kinship Placement

This is the third time children have been placed out of the home. Fictive kin have stepped up to provide for the children although they have limited financial resources. Children are currently sleeping on the couch as there are five other children in the home. The placement family asked if there was any way to get bunk beds, mattresses, and bedding to give the kids a sense of home and feel as they reside there and not just a guest.

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.
