Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing

$370.00 still needed

Request: #241991 • Urgency: High • Demographic: Child-Centered Request • City: Grand Rapids • State: Michigan • Zip Code: 49505 • County: Kent • Submitted By: DA Blodgett - St Johns

Story

1 Child

A teenager with significant mental health concerns is in need of a Bark phone for an increased sense of safety and wellbeing. In the case of a mental health crisis, a Bark phone I needed for this youth to be able to call their caregiver and/or supportive safe adults. This youth struggles with being safe online, so a Bark phone is needed due to the extensive parental controls the phone offers. Having a Bark phone will allow this youth to do everyday activities and be away from the caregiver while still having a sense of safety if a mental health crisis arises. This request is for a full year of the phone plan paid up front to ensure the youth and caregiver has adequate and full access to all safe features for this phone.

Help Reunify a Bio Family

CASA has a case with three children who were removed from their mother's care due to her substance use, mental health struggles, educational neglect and regular neglect. The mother has since passed away and the father is taking in two of the children. He has had to miss a lot of his hourly pay job to get the kids settled into his home and resources/appointments. He could use help with groceries for the home in the form of a Walmart or King Soopers gift card. Thank you for considering.

Help Make a Kinship Placement

This is the third time children have been placed out of the home. Fictive kin have stepped up to provide for the children although they have limited financial resources. Children are currently sleeping on the couch as there are five other children in the home. The placement family asked if there was any way to get bunk beds, mattresses, and bedding to give the kids a sense of home and feel as they reside there and not just a guest.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

A previous mom we helped some time ago has stated the bed we gave is now worn. A photo was provided to show that. She would appreciate a twin bed for her son (mattress and box springs and rails, or platform frame) and a comforter. This will help her son to get the sleep he needs to be healthy and feel secure.

PLEASE NOTE: RISE CHURCH CAN MEET THIS NEED WITH A BED WE ALREADY HAVE IN OUR INVENTORY. NO FURTHER DONATIONS ARE NEEDED.
