A local family is seeking assistance in purchasing essential medical supplies needed to safely feed their young child. The child has a swallowing disorder that requires the use of a specialized food thickener to prevent aspiration and ensure safe feeding. While the family is actively working with healthcare and insurance providers to secure long-term coverage for the product, they are currently in need of financial support to help cover the cost in the meantime. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as they navigate this challenging time.

One year old little girl is currently placed with her paternal grandparents. Paternal grandmother recently got laid off from her job and is in need of help in obtaining a stroller that is light enough to carry her grandchild up the stairs to their apartment. The child is not able to walk yet, and paternal grandmother struggles to carry her all the stairs to their second-floor apartment. She would be grateful for the stroller.

Caregiver provides all transportation for youth out of her own pocket. Would like to help her out with a $300 gas card.

GO is a mom of 4 yr old daughter and 1 yr old twins. She has been working hard at getting her certification in EEG completed so she can begin her internship. She is very driven and extremely positive despite multiple barriers and obstacles. She is a patient and loving mother. One of her passions is helping the homeless and often spends her extra SNAP money on making food and distributing it to the homeless. GO has been sleeping on an air mattress herself for about 6 mos and would really appreciate an actual bed. Here are the links to a reasonable set (mattress, frame and sheets) that would be a real blessing to her and her small children. They total just under $200.00 for all 3.

I am reaching out to the community to ask for assistance in providing support to 4 extraordinary siblings ages 17-25 who grew up throughout San Mateo County and were part of our local foster care system. Their biological father recently passed away and they're doing everything they can in order to provide him with a dignified farewell. They're needing to raise money to cover all costs associated with a burial site, funeral, casket, and other ceremony arrangements. Needless to say, these expenses are extremely high and well beyond their means as 2 of the siblings are in college and the other 2 (who graduated college previously) are early on in their careers. I can provide further details regarding the GoFundMe that has been established and/or connect you directly with one of the family members if needed. They still need a significant amount of money, so all donations are greatly appreciated. Thank you for your consideration.

"As an immigrant and person of color in a city of contrasts, our father faced real obstacles both personal and systemic. He lived with bipolar disorder, depression, and schizophrenia, and he struggled for decades with substance use. He was human…Yet despite all of this, he never stopped trying to show up. He called us, no matter where he was from a mental health facility, from jail, from wherever he could reach us. He called even when we were upset with him. He wanted us to know that he cared, that his love had not disappeared.”

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.
