Two brothers were placed in a pre-adoptive placement on short notice. The caregivers had a lot to do to get ready for them and the boys had plenty of clothes; however, the oldest child's shoes were all too small for him. He is 11 and wears a size 9.5. The youngest child, a 4 YO, needs a booster seat for the kitchen table. This donation will really help the adoptive placement with juggling the expenses of summer camp, getting their rooms ready, and making sure they have clothes that fit.

I am reaching out on behalf of a family in urgent need of assistance. The mother, who was recently homeless, has just moved into a home with her three children—two sons, ages 15 and 14, and a 3-year-old daughter. While this is a major step forward, the family is currently without basic household essentials and is in need of support to help turn their new house into a home.

They are in need two twin XL mattresses for each of the two teenage boys, and a bed and mattress suitable for the 3-year-old daughter. These items may seem simple, but they are vital to the family’s comfort, stability, and well-being. Beds, in particular, are essential to a child’s health, development, and ability to get the restful sleep they need to succeed in school and thrive.

Any assistance would mean the world to this family and help provide them with the stability and dignity they deserve.

Thank you so much for your time and consideration.

The mother is currently co-sleeping with her young child, and they are really in need of a bed. There is a concern that if the current sleeping arrangement continues the child could be serious harmed and/or injured.

We have three brothers whose foster parents need some outdoor toys to keep them busy outside. Their wish list includes, a water table, a tricycle for a 5 YO boy, sandbox, and an up and down roller coaster kids ride. The boys are physically delayed and would benefit greatly from gross and fine motor stimulation outside.

This caregiver expresses a variety of needs since taking in two kids (girl age 14 and boy age 11) into their home. They are requesting help with groceries as the monthly bill increased from $400 to $700. They are also asking for assistance with two dressers for the kids as their clothes are being kept on the floor. There is a need for assistance with clothes. The family is requesting gift cards to Goodwill because they cannot give exact clothing sizes for the kids due to clothing sizes varying due to the build of the children. Lastly, the family is asking for assistance with toiletries (shampoo, deodorant, toothpaste, and soap).
