Story

•
2 Children

Two young children — one with autism and one without — are currently being raised in a loving placement with family members. This family has stepped up selflessly to keep these siblings together and safe, providing stability, care, and unconditional love during a challenging time.

A grocery store gift card — in any amount — would go a long way toward lifting some of the financial stress this family is facing.

Help Prevent a Child From Entering Foster Care

This family recently started working with the Department. Concerns involved domestic violence which led to mom leaving her husband. Through this process she has become the sole provider and is 100% responsible for the kids, especially now that her mom recently passed away. Mom has been financially dependent on father but is now working two jobs to try and keep the apartment she is currently in. Her son has unexpectedly needed to have surgery this week, so she had to access funds for her rent and groceries. I am requesting grocery assistance for this month to help her and all three of her children. Thank you for any and all help!

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

We have a young mother in a local church who has been struggling to find employment and has just given birth to a little baby boy. She is in need of an infant car seat. Keeping this child safe and the family together is the priority. I think preferably a grow and go all in one option would be great.
