Good afternoon,

I am submitting a request on behalf of a family of 11- nine children and two adults. The family lived in their previous home for four years, but discovered the paint was lead based. Some of the kids ended up with high levels of lead, which qualified the family for intervention from the State of Michigan. As a result, the landlord was forced to address the issue and refused to renew the family's lease as a result. The family is currently unhoused because no one will rent to them due to the high number of children. As a result of having no place to live, the family has exhausted their funding staying in hotels. As stated above, they are currently unhoused and have nowhere to go. Dad has consistent employment, has paid his rent on time, and maintains consistent employment with good wages. My ask is two fold, if anyone has a place to rent, the family can pay $1,800 month in tent. The second part is a hotel for two weeks. The family has the potential to go through a diversion program in a month from now, and at that point will be all set. The shelters in the area can not accommodate a family of that size, and the only way they can potentially get into a shelter is to split up the family. If you are able to help in any way, please reach out. Thank you.

Family of 5 (mom is 3 months pregnant) and they have a 2 year old and 9 month old. Dad is a disabled veteran, honorably discharged. They have been told they will not be able to receive housing assistance from veteran benefits until upcoming baby is born. They had been living out of their car/door dashing during the day to pay for hotel rooms at night. However recently they were driving back in a storm and hit a large pothole and the cv axle fell off the car. They now have no transportation. They have the room at the current motel paid for tonight but have no idea what they will do for tomorrow and until he is paid on the 25th and can get the car fixed. Any help would be very appreciated.

Cost of current motel room per night is $80

I am delivering a emergency food and baby pantry order to them today. Any assistance with keeping them housed while I work with the family to get them back on their feet would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

A single mom and her two teen boys recently found a new home after about 4 months of being homeless. This was the result of a very abusive situation at the hands of her ex-husband. Even though mom is working, she is facing a lot of obstacles, and the family is struggling to stay afloat and keep up with the bills. Recently their refrigerator broke and unfortunately mom is not able to get it fixed or to purchase another one. Your help is urgently needed to help this family get back up on their feet. A donation towards a new fridge would make all the difference to them!

Due to unforeseen circumstances a single mom and her young son were forced to move. Mom has done the best she can to make this move as seamless as possible. Due to limited financial resources she's been unable to get beds and furniture for them. Any assistance to help this mom make a new apartment home!

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.
