Single mom in our community will be moving from transitional housing into their new apartment next week. She and her son with special needs are re-establishing their home. We would like to support their progress they have made by helping with mattresses.

The mattress request for Brooklake's Resource Center family has been lowered to $200.00. Thanks for considering this way to come around this family we have known through our Resource Center for a few years.

We’re hoping to rally support for one of our students who was recently diagnosed with diabetes. He requires his blood sugar to be tested every two hours due to ongoing challenges with stabilizing his levels. Unfortunately, the specific test strips he needs are not covered by insurance, and the cost has become a heavy burden for his family.

He has run out of supplies multiple times during the school day, requiring his mom to leave work and rush to the store. We are hoping to help this family stock up on these essential test strips for the summer so that he can stay safe and healthy.

If you are able to help meet this need, it would bring immense relief to this family during a very difficult time. The link for strips on amazon is Go To Link

We are requesting support for a family of seven (two parents and five children) who are currently residing in a family shelter. The father is working to provide for the family and relies on the family’s vehicle to get to and from work. The vehicle is currently in need of maintenance and repairs, and without it, the father will be unable to maintain employment.

This support will directly impact the well-being of the children by helping the family stabilize their income and stay on a path toward permanent housing. Reliable transportation is essential to ensure the family can access work, school, medical appointments, and community resources.

Your assistance in covering the cost of repairs will play a critical role in helping this family move forward and provide much-needed security for the children during this time of transition.

Specific Need: Auto repair or financial assistance for vehicle maintenance: Family is receiving shelter support and working to move toward long-term stability.
