Help Strengthen a Bio Family

Hardworking single mother who has been unable to work in the last several weeks of her pregnancy needs urgent help with rent assistance. She has 4 young children at home already and was just induced early on an emergency basis and delivered her 5th child. Her rent is late for July and she has been working diligently to find funding available to help her in Wake County, but keeps being met with the response that there is no funding or she is currently ineligible. She received a portion of her rent through a CarePortal donation and has been trying to find other resources to cover the rest and has been unable. She needs to pay her rent by the 25th of this month or she is risking eviction. The amount listed here includes the late fees that have already accrued. We know this is a very large ask but we are praying for a miracle and help so this family does not lose housing while she is in her first several weeks postpartum. Any amount towards the total cost will help this family.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

Grace's Table is supporting a teen mom who is determined accomplish her goals. The mom consistently attends programming with her infant child and invests in her peers. At just 19-years-old, she works full-time and attends a local college to prepare for a career in the medical field. Recently, her car broke down and the repair expense is significant ($1,992). She's saved money for emergencies, so she is able to pay for a significant portion of the repair. We invite you to invest in her future as she works doggedly to get ahead despite very little support from anyone outside of Grace's Table. Your support allows her to continue getting to work and school in addition to getting her child to daycare and appointments. We have a copy of the transmission repair estimate and she placed a deposit down to get the repairs underway. Bless this hustler to get her where she's going!

Help Assist a Victim of Domestic Violence

This mother and her children, 9 year old daughter and just turned 18 year old daughter, have been associated with WRPC for many years. She is leaving an unsafe situation due to the father's substance abuse and needs help to cover legal fees. Mom has obtained a restraining order and is working with the Branch House Family Justice Center. She has been advised by social services that Legal Aid is not the way to go because there is a waiting list and with a child involved it is more difficult for anyone to pick up the case. Any amount will help!

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

Good morning, Community Church Members! We are working with a 16 year old female who is currently residing with a family member. We are currently requesting assistance in purchasing a gun lockbox to ensure the firearm in the home is in a safe and secure location, locked away from the child's access for safety purposes. If easier, we can accept a gift card for $25 and the lockbox would be purchased for the family. Your support is always appreciated! Thank you

Stabilize Housing Insecurity

Single working mom with 3 kids ages 14, 10 and 3 1/2 years old is in desperate need of temporary assistance to prevent eviction. She has previously experienced homelessness with her three minor children and is fearful of this happening again just as she was able to begin to feel secure in her new place over the past 6 months. Through no fault of her own, there was a break in pay the first week in July causing her to fall behind. The leasing company is very strict and threatening to begin eviction process, even though she has said she will have the money by the last week of this month, they want it now! The total amount needed is $2,150. Please help keep this family together in their home. Because she is gainfully employed, she will not have any problems going forward. Thanking you in advance for your anticipated generosity.

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.
