Rejected Cornerstone Organization

We have a mom of four kiddos in need of any assistance available. She was in a hit and run accident in April where her car was totaled. She has applied to multiple loans and she continues to be denied. She would need a vehicle with third row seating to fit the family with car seats, etc. Anything available to help donate to a down payment for a vehicle, or if you know of someone willing to part with a vehicle for an affordable price would be greatly appreciated. The amount input in the request is for a down payment for a vehicle she has found locally to where she can make the monthly car payments. Thank you for any and all help! It is greatly appreciated.

We have a single expectant client who is in need of a new infant/convertible car seat. She is due in July and will need the car seat to be able to bring her baby home from the hospital. Car seat may be dropped off at any of our clinic locations (Wytheville, Radford or Blacksburg) and we will get it to her.

The Department is working with a mother who recently had her children removed from her care. The mother is working to rectify the issues in the home that led to the children entering care. The mother is in need of help with cleaning supplies and home repairs. The mother is requesting help with the following items: Various totes, cleaners, cooking supplies, spin mop heads, murphy oil soap, Killz paint, wood polish, cleaning clothes, dusters, Windex, antibacterial wipes, gloves, sponges, upholstery cleaner, shower scrubber, ceiling fans, water hose, cabinet repairs, hood exhaust fan, vacuum, sink in bathroom, and door repair.

The department is currently working with a family who resides in the Galax area. The family has two small children and has recently received information they are able to move into an apartment at Melton's Run in Galax. The family is in need of a kitchen table for the apartment as they do not currently have one.

The department is currently working with a household size of four. Within the home is one adult and three children. The adult is employed, and the primary caretaker of the children. All of the finances which are brought in through employment, are being put to financial needs. The department is seeking assistance in getting this family three twin size beds, two dressers, and three laundry baskets. By requesting this through the care portal it will allow the adult to put all finances to bills within the home. If this request is met through the care portal it will strengthen the family by allowing the child to have appropriate sleeping arrangements in the home, appropriate storage of their clothing, and help declutter by the use of laundry baskets. The children in the home are two boys and a girl.

We are looking to help a young mom of 4 children. Her second oldest son is severely autistic (non-verbal), and suffers from ARFID (Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder). He attends a school year round in Wytheville, but specific foods have to be provided to the school, and of course at home too. She does have food assistance, however much of the funds are consumed by his very specific food requirements. We are entering this request in the form of a monthly "sponsorship", hoping that multiple churches, individuals, organizations will sign up to sponsor 1 month over the course of the next year. We believe we will then enter a new request the following year.

The mom has suggested that the food be delivered directly to the school (which would cover 2 of his 3 meals each day), or food items can be provided to her home (in Pulaski County). Addresses will be provided for those who sign up to help. Food needs to be delivered to either the school or her home by the 15th of the month that you sign up to help. Specific food items include: 6 boxes (family size) of Nabisco Chicken in a Biskit crackers ($36), 4 bags Doritos spicy Chile flavor ($24), 3 12 packs Lipton Diet Green tea ($21) and 4 boxes Kroger Brand strawberry frosted pastries ($10) - total around $100 per month.

Thank you in advance for stepping up to help this family.
