Story

2 Children 2 Adults

Their is a family that is in need of a couch in order to have 2 children to return to their home. It's one of the ask that they have left as other support for the family has been provided. The oldest was born in foster care so for Eli's Law the newborn was placed into foster care. After a joint home visit, the family didn't have a couch, so the children weren't able to return home. They are set for an additional home visit at the end of the month and if the couch isn't in the home the children won't be able to return. The family is so close to having everything they need such as food, a crib, and a couch would be hard for them to purchase quickly. Anything can help.

Help Support a Youth Aging Out

This coming Sunday evening, Jonathan’s Path hosts a family-style dinner for youth in foster care or those who have recently aged out. It’s not just a meal — it’s a lifeline. These dinners give our youth a safe, welcoming space to be seen, heard, and connected. It's often over a plate of food that we discover who’s struggling with transportation to work, therapy and more, who hasn't had a hot meal in days, or who just needs someone to talk to or a hug.

This Sunday, we’re expecting 25 young people — and we need to raise $700 to cover transportation so they can get there. Most don’t have cars, many live across the Nashville, Murfreesboro, Lebanon, Antioch, etc,

Would you consider covering this week’s need? Your support will directly help us: -Get all 25 youth safely to and from the dinner -Ensure they enjoy a warm, home-cooked meal -Create space for healing, connection, and honest conversation -Uncover real needs we can help meet during the week ahead

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

Single mom of 3 is expecting a baby girl at the beginning of August and needs assistance with items for her newborn. This is a mother that we've worked with in the past who is reaching out in hopes that we can help her provide items for her newborn baby to come home to. She is very hard working and does all she can to provide for her babies but as a single parent is struggling to secure the supplies she needs for her baby on the way. Any contributions to provide relief would immeasurably encourage and strengthen the welfare of this family.
