3 Children 2 Adults

Hello Care Portal Community and Supporters! I have a family that has run into a difficult situation. A father and mother have recently started new jobs and their first paychecks were held. This came right as rent is due and now there are late fees attached and rent plus the late fees must be paid within 3 days before the family runs into an issue of evictions process starting. The family cannot pay rent until they get their checks and they are not sure when that will be. The family does not plan on this happening again as it was a circumstance of starting their new jobs and those checks being held that they needed for rent. Would anyone be willing to help this family with rent this month?

Help Preserve a Foster Care Placement

Hi all! We currently have a foster family that supports mainly older youths in care who are in need of some dressers to replace the ones they currently have that are falling apart. These can be new or used, and we do not have any preferences on size or brand. These will be used to help store current and future foster children's clothing and personal items so that each child has an area to call their own. I have added a few different links below to some options on Amazon, but if you have any that are used and you are willing to donate, please reach out and we will schedule a time for pick up! Thanks so much!

Help Prevent a Child From Entering Foster Care

The child is at high risk of being placed in custody. The caregiver is trying to provide the child with therapeutic services to address violent, destructive behaviors. The caregiver has reported a financial need for bus passes for herself and the child so they may take the bus to therapeutic services. The cost is an estimate for the two full calendar month local bus tickets. The passes will be utilized to attend therapeutic sessions to address the conflict in order to keep the child in the home.

Three children have been removed from their home and placed with kin. The children are growing fast and assistance with new clothing for school would be very beneficial to the family.

Any help with this request would be greatly appreciated!
