Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

CASA has a case with a 6-year-old girl who was removed from her father after he was found to be using substances and heavily neglecting the child. She was living with bedbugs, many mice, few clothes and little food. She is now placed with a family relative, who is lower income and does not have expendable income. The child has asked to go to the Butterfly Pavilion and the Georgetown Railroad Loop, but this cost is not manageable. CASA is asking for assistance with this want (not a need) by someone providing a Visa gift card near the amount of $215, which can offset the tickets for the child and adults in the household to visit these places. Thank you!

Help Make a Foster Care Placement

A teenager (Female, 14) was place with a resource under DHS supervision. The resource and her son live in a 2-bedroom apartment, she’s a single mother, and her income is barely enough to provide and care for her and her son. The 14-year-old sleeps on their couch, the resource is in the process of getting certified to become a foster parent for the youth as a long-term permanency option. To become certified as a foster parent, the youth need her own privacy and sleeping area. We’re requesting a room divider so the youth can have privacy and her own space and area.

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.
