Support an Expecting Mom and Her Unborn Baby

Young woman is experiencing deep loss and grief due to a death in her life. She is responsible to store items and is not yet ready to fully part with the items. During this time she has not been able to get to work and so funding this practical need for her will be a huge blessing to help her get ahead. Containers do not need to be new, but do need to be clean and in working order. Thank you for your ministry

Three children, currently sleep on air mattresses. The mattresses become deflated often and the children end up on the floor by morning time, disrupting their sleep when they have to be well rested for school. Mother has made attempts to patch the holes and at times has had to purchase new air mattresses as they are more affordable than purchasing and actual mattress and bed. The mother is a single parent and is currently not working as she is trying to stabilize her children's lives. The mother is trying to enroll in school to be able to start a career and get a better job to provide for her children. The mother is looking to go back to work, but she has to find a new location as the father continues to look for the mother and there is a restraining order.

As a Kinship caregiver, has taken on the responsibility of providing care and stability for her grandson. The YMCA Kinship Support Program was able to contribute $358.55 toward the total camp cost of $450.00. However, the remaining balance of $91.45 is still a financial challenge for the family. This support would allow her grandson to participate fully in a safe, enriching summer camp experience while also helping Jacqueline maintain financial stability as she continues to meet the needs of her kinship placement.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

This family we have helped before. She was removed from an abusive home and moved into Covington with her children and has struggled to make ends meet. Her apartment is now asking her to leave, but she has secured a place in Clifton but needs help moving some things to her new place. She has 2 children and has a very hard medical diagnosis that has been keeping her bills high. She will need a truck or trailer to haul some things. I have this valued at $10 because it's not really a monetary need. She has also requested to have someone sit with her to help her work out her financial budget. She is really doing her hardest to take care of her family.
