Story

2 Children 1 Adult

FCDSS is working with a single father who has struggled with addiction. As a result of his substance use, homelessness and other barriers his children were placed into foster care. He has struggled with his substance use. He has struggled with maintaining employment due to lack of transportation. The agency held a family partnership meeting to discuss barriers, needs and ways to meet and overcome these challenges. Since this father does not have valid license, the team suggested a bicycle or electric bicycle as a means of transportation, and he is willing to utilize anything to help him be mobile for his substance use treatment and employment. He has shown motivation and willingness to engage in services. FCDSS is asking if there are any churches that have a bicycle that is not being used that would be willing to be donated or even an electric bicycle.

Help Support a Youth Aging Out

A youth I am working with is in need of a laptop of his own. His preference is a refurbished Mac Book but he is grateful for anything that allows him to connect to the Internet and has video/virtual capabilities so he can participate in virtual family therapy sessions with his mom.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

The Denver Human Services' GIVE Center is in urgent need of 3T/4T Pull-Ups for the children and families we serve. Each year, the GIVE Center supports nearly 4,000 clients who rely on us for essential, emergency resources—including diapers. Many of the parents and caregivers who visit the GIVE Center struggle to access diapers due to financial hardship, especially as diaper prices continue to rise. Ensuring these families have access to the right diaper sizes helps protect the health and well-being of their children. With your support, families will be able to leave the GIVE Center with exactly what they need.

Below is a link to the specific Pull-Ups we’re requesting. We also gratefully accept alternative brands and other diaper-related donations. Go To Link Thank you for helping us care for Denver’s children and families!
