Story

1 Child 2 Adults

Have you met the strongest eleven-year-old on the planet? This worker has!!! This young girl has overcome insurmountable odds after being shaken as a baby by a caregiver, resulting in her having shaken baby syndrome. In July of this year, some tests were run, and it was determined her kidneys are now failing. The child is currently in end-stage renal failure while she and the family wait for a kidney that may never come. The child’s father has been incarcerated most of the child’s life and is not involved. The child’s mother was incarcerated for a time and is now released; however, she has minimal involvement and has left the child in her grandparents’ care. The grandmother must drive back-and-forth out of town three hours one-way twice weekly so the child can receive dialysis. The drive back-and-forth puts quite a financial burden on the family. Gas cards to assist with fuel costs would be a great help. For the long car rides and waits during dialysis, the child likes to have something to keep her busy and loves to color. Coloring books with crayons would make her trips more fun. The child wears adult pullups, size S/M, and needs wipes. She has recently hit a growth spurt and likes to wear yoga pants, adult size medium/large, to her appointments so she can be comfortable. The child is outgrowing her shoes as well and is currently wearing a size 7W. Any assistance to help this little girl’s life become a tiny bit sweeter is greatly appreciated.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

Kin provider is a family friend who took in a one year old when his mother needed help. They currently are both unemployed, so finances are tight. They've utilized community resources for a car seat, but the one provided they do not feel is safe. They're really in need of a specific car seat so that kin provider does not worry about the child when transporting him to all his appointments, visits, etc. Any help is so appreciated by this family. Even a giftcard from Amazon to pay for part of this carseat would be so helpful.

A young family of 2 children ages 1 and 7 years old are requesting a dryer as they moved into a house from an apartment. The couple have been here from Venezuela for about 2.5 years and help out at Centro Cristiano a Las Naciones with leading music. They moved from an apartment which had a washer and dryer and now they need to provide for their own. The father is looking for work and does odd jobs to help pay for rent, bills, food, clothing, etc. A dryer will help mom take care of her kids so that they will be able to attend school and help their hygiene. Thank you for your help.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

A single mother of 5 children missed quite some time from work due to unforeseen behavior issues with her 7-year-old son, who has since been diagnosed with ADHD and ODD. Due to these conditions, her son was not able to stay in school full days and she had to stop working for seven months until she was able to get him approved through his insurance for an in school one-on-one counselor, a smaller classroom setting and also a 504/IEP plan. Now that he has those, she has been able to get another job but won’t get paid until June 30th. She has fallen behind on her rent and several other bills. I am requesting help with the following bills: rent for May $833, she has worked out a payment plan with her landlord for the remaining balance if she can get May’s rent paid; light bill $274 and that is with an approval for cooling assistance from social services which starts on 6/15, her disconnect is for 6/16; water bill $54.37 which also has a disconnect for 6/16. I am also requesting assistance with food and gas money. Mom reached out to her social worker about all these requests, but worker was not able to process her snap application in time for her to receive benefits for June, so she won’t receive any snap benefits until July 4. She also needs money for gas to get to her job.
