Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing
We are currently working with a dedicated mother of a five-year-old boy who is navigating significant challenges. She became a parent as a teenager and has faced ongoing difficulties, including housing instability and limited access to basic necessities. The child’s father is not present and has expressed no interest in being involved in their lives. Recently, the mother’s cell phone service has been disconnected due to an outstanding bill of $733. This has severely impacted her ability to: Access critical community resources and services Communicate with her child’s support network Schedule essential appointments and outings with her son Receive notifications and updates from schools, health providers, and social service agencies Given her current circumstances, a working phone is not a luxury but a necessity. She actively seeks help when it is available and benefits greatly from the services she can access—when reachable. We are requesting urgent support to help cover the cost of her phone bill so she can restore service. Restoring her phone will empower her to better care for her child, stay connected to crucial services, and continue moving forward during this challenging time. We are requested the mother’s cell phone service has been disconnected due to an outstanding bill of $733. Any assistance or referrals to organizations that may be able to help would be deeply appreciated. Thank you for your consideration and compassion.

Help Prevent a Child From Entering Foster Care
Hello! This is not a typical CarePortal request, but we are desperately trying to help a family in need of a 3 bedroom Section 8 Rental. This is for a single mother of 5 children. If the family is not in housing soon, the children risk going into foster care. If you have or know of a 3 bedroom rental - preferably in lower Bucks county or in NE Philadelphia - please let me know. If you can connect us with a landlord who might have a Section 8 rental, we would be very appreciative of any connection or lead you can share. Please say a prayer for this family! Thank you so much!
