Gateway Church Frisco

A mother and her two young daughters (ages 3 and 6 months) recently relocated to Collin County for safety reasons and are currently living in their car. Mom has secured a job and childcare but urgently needs gas assistance to get to work and daycare each day. Supporting this need will help the family maintain stability and move closer to permanent housing. Any help with gas cards or fuel support would be greatly appreciated.

The family is seeking assistance with their utility bill. Mom and her partner have faced financial challenges due to recently switching jobs and moving into a new apartment to provide more space for their three children (two girls and one boy, ages 12, 13, and 16). The family has been cooperative with the agency and is maintaining employment. The transition into new jobs and the move have strained their finances. Mom has a strong work ethic, but unforeseen circumstances have arisen, and they require assistance for this month only. This support would strengthen the family bond, positively impact the children's well-being, and help them thrive in a supportive and stable environment.

A youth in extended foster care has recently moved by himself to his college dorm. He is a full-time student and employee who is trying his hardest to live a normal life fresh out of foster care. He is making great strides as a young adult in the real world but needs a little extra support with the more expensive necessities. Any help will be appreciated.

I am reaching out on behalf of a mother who is in a deeply difficult and heartbreaking situation. She is currently pregnant and caring for her six young children at home. As she nears the end of her pregnancy, she has been facing serious complications that have left her unable to work. Despite her best efforts, she has used nearly all of her savings just to keep a roof over her family’s head. Now, with her due date just days away, she has run out of resources and is at risk of losing her home. This mother is doing everything she can to protect and care for her children, but she desperately needs help. Any financial support during this critical time would mean the world to her and her children and could be the lifeline that keeps them safe and together.

I have a mom who recently lost her job and she is going to be behind von rent due to some added fees. She has three children and has been doing Door Dash to cover household necessities.

The mother just relocated from Southern Dallas County, and she moved to Richardson, Texas. She needs beds for her two children (age 11 and 15).

Help bring comfort and healing to three grieving siblings. Three siblings—ages 12 (female), 11 (male), and 8 (male)—are currently living in a shelter after the recent and tragic loss of their brother. This devastating event has uprooted their lives, and they are in great need of comfort and emotional support as they begin the grieving and healing process.

Meeting this need will provide the children with a sense of stability and care during this difficult transition. These items will not only meet their practical needs but also help them process their grief and create small moments of joy in a very uncertain time.

The children are requesting:

Clothing and shoes (all sizes)

Journals for personal reflection

Bibles for spiritual comfort

Dragon Ball Z items and stuffed animals for emotional connection

Movie tickets to experience positive family time together

CPS is working with a family of a mother and her son to help provide services. The child and mother are currently in therapy services to help address their needs. This therapy service is costing them out of pocket and is not covered under their insurance, but this therapy group is the best option for this family to heal from their trauma. The therapist is one of the most qualified to help this child and this child is very comfortable with the therapist, so we do not want him to end the therapy due to finances. This could cause a regression in behaviors. This therapist has done a wonderful job and is also working with them on a sliding scale.

We are asking for help to pay an utility bill to help offset some of the cost of the therapy. The family is working on getting some other financial assistance from organizations but will take time to set up. Mom had to miss some of her sessions due to finances. We want the family to be successful.

Single mother of 3 with one medically fragile child is pregnant and she hasn't had a newborn in her home for 10 years. Assistance with supplies for a new baby in the home would significantly help her financially. Currently unemployed due to 1 child's severe medical needs but will be gaining employment once nursing care is secured. She can use any essential newborn items such as bottles, pacifiers, blankets, burp clothes, baby clothes, baby swing, diapers, and wipes. Mother is due in August.

A youth in foster care has recently discovered his love for sports and has joined a baseball camp that starts soon. He is in need of a baseball bat as well as other baseball required gear. Anything would help make this kiddo's world light up.
