Grace Response Team 2

A family living in the neighborhood of the pastor of our church has been displaced for over 2 years due to major mold problems in the home and insufficient funds to renovate. Husband has been doing most of the work on his own after coming home from his FT job, while his wife and their two kids live with relatives. Funds toward building materials will help speed up the process for the family to be reunified as quickly as possible. Gift cards to Home Depot and Menards will help husband get the necessary materials to finish the project. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

This family has been homeless for over a year and have been living in a shelter for the majority of the time. They finally have their own housing but due to being in the shelter, they do not have household items to truly make their house feel like a home. Additionally, mom and her children (boys ages 5 & 6, girl age 3) struggle with PTSD due to many of the things they have been through, and having comfortable and stable housing will give them more opportunities to take care of their mental health.

Her children's attendance at school has not been very good due to their housing difficulties, and now that they have housing we hope that it will improve. They are smart kids but missing out on so much instruction has caused them to fall behind. They love being at school and we hope so much that they will be able to come as much as possible.

Any amount of groceries would be a huge help. Any amount of cleaning supplies and dishes/pots/pans would be very helpful for the family of 4.

Children in early community education programs are in need of basic clothing. I am requesting underwear, black/navy sweatpants and black mittens.

A mom with two children, who have been in transitional housing, is looking for two full beds. PLEASE NOTE: Full/Double Box Springs will NOT fit up the stairway, so client is requesting Twin Box Springs instead. Client currently has 1 and needs 3 more.
