Request: #242748 • Urgency: Critical • Demographic: Child-Centered Request • City: Kansas City • State: Missouri • Zip Code: 64130 • County: Jackson • Submitted By: MO- Cornerstones of Care • Lead Church: Community Praise Worship and World Outreach Center

Story

5 Children 2 Adults

IIS is requesting assistance in paying a family’s electricity bill. A single mother of four who is helping her cousin and their child has had her electricity turned off by Evergy. Mom has worked diligently to reach out to local resources and even attempted to take out a loan to pay off her bill. Prior to the electricity being turned off, the mom had believed that there was an automatic pledge assisting with this bill. She was unaware of the bill's high amount until the electricity was turned off. Currently, we have not been able to find a resource that can assist in meeting this need elsewhere in the community. The family is currently unable to stay in the home due to the significant heat the area is experiencing. There are 2 adults in the home. There are five children, ages 10, 6, 5, 3, 1.

If we are able to meet this need the family can resume staying in the home and safely avoid the excessive heat. If the family is able to resume staying in the home they can begin to focus on using their finances to pay off debt and not seek out temporary living stations (hotels, etc).

The bill is currently 730 dollars to get the electricity back on in the home. At this time, IIS and its organization are approved to pay approximately 430 dollars. Any additional assistance meeting the remainder of the 300 dollars to get the electricity into the home would be amazing to help this family.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

The Ellis County Homeless Coalition is working with a mother that has two adorable little girls. She had her car pulled over off the road with car trouble and a tow truck hit her, spun the car several times, totaled the car, and has caused her extensive injury. She is a CNA, which she worked really hard to get last year, so as to better her live for her and her daughters. Her company does not have paid medical leave, so she is without pay, and needs help with some of her bills. She is hoping to get a settlement from the accident, and get caught back up to be able to move forward. She needs help with a phone bill of $48.36, due July 22, a light bill of $25, must be paid by July 30, and Internet past due, bill of $148.58. If a church would like to help her with her $670 rent, all or part that would be a true blessing. She is truly grateful for any support that can be given to her.

Help Remove an Educational Barrier for a Child

A hardworking mom who has courageously rebuilt her life after overcoming addiction is now thriving. She went back to school to continue her education, secured a full-time job, and is committed to giving her children a better future—one grounded in faith. She desires to give her children a Christian education and has been accepted into a local Christian school willing to enroll her two youngest children. A scholarship will cover most of their tuition once they are officially admitted. However, there is a $350 application fee per child, and she is still short $600. She has already contributed $100 toward the total cost, demonstrating her commitment. This request is for the remaining $600 in application fees so that her children can be given a fresh start and a Christ-centered education.

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.
