A 17-year-old young woman is courageously working to overcome significant mental health challenges that have deeply impacted her daily life. For a long time, her struggles left her unable to engage in even the most basic self-care, including regular hygiene, simply because she didn’t feel comfortable in her own skin.

But she is fighting to reclaim her life.

She has begun making remarkable strides in improving her hygiene and self-confidence. As part of her journey, she is in need of new clothing that fits her body and supports her sense of dignity and belonging. She currently wears a 3XL in pants and an XL in shirts. Hygiene items would also make a meaningful difference as she continues building routines that support her well-being.

Her mother, who is homebound due to medical issues and receives daily care, is unable to provide these items on her own. This family is doing their best with the resources they have, but they need our help to continue moving forward.

This request isn’t just for clothes and hygiene items... it’s an opportunity to affirm this young woman’s healing, growth, and worth.

The child was recently moved from non-relative out-of-home care to her father's home under emergency circumstances. The family already has another child in the home and only had one bed and bedroom for both children. The family has been able to obtain a bunk bed and one mattress but are in need of one more twin mattress and twin sized sheets.

Single mother of a 6-month-old baby boy is in need of support to continue providing for her child. She is currently working part-time as an Uber driver while actively searching for full-time employment. However, limited resources make it difficult for her to afford gas, which directly impacts her ability to earn income and care for her son.

She is requesting assistance with a gas card (any amount appreciated) to help her stay on the road and maintain financial stability. Additionally, she is in urgent need of diapers (size 4) and baby wipes to ensure her baby’s basic needs are met.

Any support will go directly toward the well-being of her child and help this mother continue moving toward self-sufficiency.

lient is a single mother of four young children who is actively seeking employment. She is currently facing challenges affording gas, which is preventing her from consistently transporting her children to and from daycare. This is making it difficult for her to attend job interviews and explore work opportunities. A gas card—of any amount—would provide vital support to help ensure her children can maintain stable care while she works toward securing employment.

The client is a single mother with a 1- and 2-year-old. The mother moved into an apartment recently but is lacking furniture. She made sure to have beds for the children. She is in need of a dining room table, chairs, sofa and a bed. Having a dining room table will directly impact the children as they will have somewhere to eat their meals and gather together. The mother also needs a place to sleep so she can care for the children appropriately. Sleep impacts a person’s life substantially and overall would be a benefit to the whole family. Thank you!

A devoted mother living with disabilities has been quietly fighting an uphill battle to rebuild her life—not only for herself, but for her 6-year-old daughter, who is autistic. Every step forward has come at great personal cost. Through relentless determination, she has managed to secure steady work and recently moved into a small home. But starting over has left her emotionally and financially drained. Their new house, though a blessing, comes with its own challenges. The yard is wildly overgrown, and she worries constantly about the safety of her daughter—fearing snakes, insects, and other unseen dangers hiding in the tall grass. With no garage or shed, she dreams of having a simple gas-powered lawn mower and a cover to keep it safe from the elements, just so her daughter can play outside without fear. The little girl’s behavior therapist recently recommended some sensory-friendly toys that could help her learn and grow—things like a Barbie Dream House or a small inflatable kiddie pool. But right now, those small joys are painfully out of reach. This mother longs to give her daughter a safe place to play and moments of happiness that all children deserve, but she simply can’t afford it on her own. Go To Link Go To Link Go To Link
