A family of six (4 kids ages 3 (F), 7(F), 9(F), 19(M) and 2 hardworking parents) are in need of 2 King sized beds. The 3 youngest girls and parents all currently share a beat down King sized bed. Due to limited space in the bedrooms, they can't have a bed for each of the girls. With the new King bed, the girls can finally have a bed in their room and no longer co-sleep with their parents. They are also in need of 2 AC units or fans for their home. Fresno is going to be experiencing one of the hottest summers and the family wants to ensure that their kids won't have to suffer through the heat these next few months.

Your generosity would help ensure that this family can sleep more comfortably and not have to deal with the Fresno heat in their home. Both parents work as maintenance/servers for schools, so summer is an especially hard time for them with their work hours decreasing. Please help bless them so that they can improve their living situation.

A young family of 2 children ages 1 and 7 years old are requesting a dryer as they moved into a house from an apartment. The couple have been here from Venezuela for about 2.5 years and help out at Centro Cristiano a Las Naciones with leading music. They moved from an apartment which had a washer and dryer and now they need to provide for their own. The father is looking for work and does odd jobs to help pay for rent, bills, food, clothing, etc. A dryer will help mom take care of her kids so that they will be able to attend school and help their hygiene. Thank you for your help.

Single Mom with 12 year old son are in need of one time rent assistance. In a chain of unfortunate events, including the Mom's card being stolen and fund removed, she is $535 short for rent. Management has told her she has 3 days to pay. If she receives the funds this will keep this Mom, her child, and her elderly Mother she cares for off the streets.

A single mother of six is in desperate need of diapers for her 7-month-old baby, who goes through them quickly. The rising cost has made it hard to keep up while caring for her other children. Urban Story once met this family’s needs—and the support still makes a difference today. Now, she needs help again. Churches and kind hearts, please step in. Diaper donations or any support would mean the world, size 2 diapers is all she needs

Dear CarePortal Community,

We have a heartfelt request from a Thomas Elementary mother who has reached out for help. She shared that this month has been really tough financially, and she is in need of diapers, wipes, and 12-month size clothing for her baby BOY. She feels a little shy about asking because she is usually the one offering help to others, but she truly needs our support right now.

Anything you can contribute will make a big difference and help ease her burden. Thank you so much in advance for your kindness and generosity. Your support means the world to families in our community.

A family with 5 children ages ranging 1yr - 15yrs. They are transitioning into a program but were unable to bring anything with them, and now are starting fresh. They are in need of bedding, hygiene items, kitchen essential and a high chair.

Having this need met will help them feel more like this is their home and help jump start their living situation.

A single mother, currently expecting her first child, is in urgent need of support. She has no family to turn to and is doing her best to provide on her own. As her due date approaches, the challenges are growing and she needs help preparing for the arrival of her newborn. She is in need of baby clothes, a baby bath, diapers and a crib for her soon to be child. Without these essentials, caring for her newborn will be even more difficult. Raising a child takes strength, but providing for them alone takes even more. Your kindness and support can help ease her burden and give her a chance to welcome her baby into a safe, loving environment. Please consider donating every bit of help makes a real difference

A single mother and her six children are living in emergency housing under heartbreaking conditions. They have no beds, no way to heat food, and none of the basics needed for a safe, livable home. This family urgently needs help — a microwave, air fryer, dining table, curtains, dressers, and other simple household items that would bring comfort and dignity to their lives. If you can help or know someone who can, please reach out. Even the smallest support can make a big difference. Let’s show this family they’re not alone.

A transitional-age youth who is reuniting with her biological family after aging out of foster care is in urgent need of household support. As preparations are made for this family of 7, it has come to our attention that beds are needed for her and siblings to ensure a safe and stable sleeping arrangement for the family. Assistance in securing these items would greatly support their reunification process and provide a strong foundation for their new chapter together.
