Story

1 Child 2 Adults

I have a grandmother who needs help with caring for her grandson. This Grandmother has been caring for her grandson more than 10 years. Over the last 5 she has been dealing with sickness and her age. This grandmother is legally disabled and is using her monthly disability check to cover her bills, food, and supplies for her teenage grandson. The parents are in a position where they are unable to help this grandmother financially and due to her not having legal guardianship, she has access to limited resources. With school about to start up this teenager will need clothes, shoes and supplies. This family needs a month of expenses covered so they may get ahead and have some room to breathe financially before school starts. If this need is met our teenagers dealing with mental health will not have to worry about the stress his grandmother is dealing with caring for him, as well as this grandmother will be able to get her grandson’s school clothes and supplies, as well as shoes, food and catch up on utility bills.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

This single mom of two boys has been unemployed after the birth of her second child who is now 4 months old. She also has a 2.5 yr old at home who was recently diagnosed with autism. Their father is absent due to legal troubles and she is not receiving child support at this time. She got a job offer yesterday and accepted so will be starting to work again this week. Her natural supports are few as her mother struggles with addiction. She is very grateful for the help of her grandmother who assists with childcare. She and her children have been living in a 1 bdrm apt and have been approved for a 2 bedroom but are lacking resources for the security deposit. She has a mattress on the floor but would love a bed frame for it to provide more comfort, and she is ready to transition her 2.5 year old son to a twin bed, which will allow them all to have a better nights rest. Security deposit and Bed items are priorities. She would love to have a table and chair set for her son to eat at and bar stools so she can eat at the kitchen counter. This is a church vetted request that originated at the North Side DCC campus. She is very willing to accept a visit from our team to provide encouragement and spiritual support. Referrals to helping agencies have been made as well. Provision for these needs will provide relief from a crowded and stressful living situation, as well as restful nights sleep for the family as they navigate their challenges.
