Single moms with infants face many challenges as they work tirelessly to provide for their families. There is a need for basic kitchen tools like pots, pans, bakeware/casserole dishes, and utensils/silverware, making it easier to prepare nourishing meals and maintain their households. Thank you for considering helping these dedicated mothers secure the essentials that can ease their burdens and bring stability to their homes. Supporting them with cooking essentials and household items means empowering them to create a better environment for their children.

A father of an 11 yr old girl is working on rebuilding his relationship with her. A $100 Visa Gift card would allow him to take her on a supervised outing in the community to do something they both enjoy. Due to he and his wife separating he is tight on funds. Thank you in advance for your consideration!

The kin family is struggling being able to afford groceries and other needs for the one-year-old child. There is a request for food stamps as well as TANF, but there is nothing in place right now. While we are waiting for that to come in, we are hoping to be able to get the family more groceries. Additionally, the family is needing more clothes and diapers, so that is what this amount of money is for. I am hoping we are able to get a Walmart giftcard for $250 to be able to get some food, as well as the other items for the child. If this is approved, it will help the family be able to eat for the time being, as well as other basic necessities.

The biological mother of a child that has been placed in foster care is struggling to purchase gas for her vehicle that she uses to make it to family time. Family time with her child is important as it fosters the bond between parent and child while the child is in foster care. I am requesting a $50 gas card to help the mother make it to visits.

The Department of Human Services is requesting either Wal-Mart or Visa gift cards up to $250 to support for a youth with purchasing a bicycle. This young man facing challenges in getting to both work and school. Currently, the youth walks long distances daily, making it difficult to balance his responsibilities. A reliable bike would greatly improve his ability to get around, making it easier to stay on top of both work and his education. With your generous contribution, we can help this young man achieve his goals and make his daily commute safer and more efficient. Any donation, big or small, would be deeply appreciated.

A mother in San Francisco has recently begun her trial reunification with her three boys. She has worked really hard to get her boys back, but has very low income. Our hope is that with some tangible support, to ease some of the financial burdens, this reunification will be successful and they can begin to move forward from their time apart.

All three boys love the colors red, white, and black. Gently used items in good condition are welcomed.

A family recently arrived from Africa fleeing their war-torn community. Dad, mom (who was pregnant with twins), and 3 children (ages 11, 9 and 6) travelled 2,500 miles, a good portion of it on foot, praying that they would be able to stay together and would be safe. The family was given refugee status and brought to America. They are in an apartment and do not know the language yet. Dad and mom are trying to set up a new home with their 5 children and have received assistance from His Helping Hands for furniture.

A Pathway member has met some of their other needs as she walks with them and one of their twins who has special needs.

Their current, most immediate needs are for a double stroller for the twins and preemie diapers. Thank you for supporting this family.

A single mom with 5 children (age ranges of 2 to 13) is struggling and could really use some support. She has had heartache after heartache over the past few years. The children's father is unable to work and be in the household due to mental illness and prior to all of this she was a stay at home mom. She has been actively trying to find work but the cost of child care has made it nearly impossible for her to do this. The primary vehicle is a large suburban which is expensive to fill up-a gas card would help with this as well as a gift card to Walmart to help with groceries and other essentials. If anyone knows of a legitimate work from home job, a job that would allow a mom to bring children or affordable child care near Valley Center or Park City, please reach out in the comments.

A mother who recently left an abusive marriage is needing help with moving from a house to a two-bedroom apartment where she and her 11-year-old son will be starting their new life. She needs help moving on Saturday, April 12. She has already rented the U-Haul and really needs help with the muscle! Everything is on the ground level and there are no appliances needing to be moved. The bigger items being moved will be 2 couches, end tables, TV stand, TV, mattresses, dining room table and boxes. The move will start on Saturday at 10:00 am. Our mother and son attend Westlink campus.

Can we have 6 people come along side this single mother to help her with her move? If you can help, please 'provide' assistance. We'll then reach out to get you connected with the family.

A mom has recently, courageously, left an abusive marriage with her 10 year old son. She has secured employment and has found a small apartment to start over. Mom and her son had to leave everything behind so are starting over to furnish their new home. She already has beds and a dresser, and someone has helped provide needed items for her bathroom.

This family still needs a couch, small kitchen table with 2 chairs, broom with dustpan, Swiffer wet mop, small vacuum for laminate flooring, pizza cutter and other kitchen utensils, dish drainer, spices, a coffee table and small bookshelf.

Mom is walking with a friend and Pathway member back to a healthy environment for her and her son.

If you can assist, please respond to this request and thank you for supporting this family!
