Dear Community,

We’re reaching out to ask for your support on behalf of a mother who is working diligently to rebuild her life and reunite with her 4-year-old daughter. One of her biggest challenges right now is the lack of reliable transportation. It’s already been difficult getting to her treatment appointments, and she’s concerned that once her daughter is home, managing school, appointments, and daily needs will become even more challenging. She has big goals; she plans to enroll in technical school this fall and hopes to place her daughter in preschool. Reliable transportation would be a critical step in helping her achieve these dreams and continue providing a stable, nurturing environment for her child. If you’re able to contribute in anyway (whether monetary, parts, or labor) or share this message, your support could make a real, lasting difference in both of their lives.

Thank you for support and commitment to your community!

Hi Community, We're reaching out for your support to help remove a transportation barrier for a mom who is working hard on her permanency plan. Unfortunately, she does not have a reliable means of transportation. We're kindly requesting a donated bus pass to support her in attending visits with her daughter and appointments with treatment providers. These family visits are crucial; they help strengthen the parent-child bond and greatly increase the chances of reunifying families. Any support you can offer is deeply appreciated. Thank you for helping us keep families connected!

CHURCH FAMILIES: We need your help! I am one of the child welfare supervisors and we have a family with a child with severe special needs that is being evicted from their home today (7-15-25). They are needing a hotel room for a few days up to a week to regroup and get a plan together. Father does not paid until Wednesday this week and they are in distress. If any church or family could assist with a night or 7, that would be a Blessing to this family today!

I’m reaching out about a young mother on my caseload who is doing exceptionally well—she’s meeting all her case goals and there are no current concerns.

She is in need of a computer to support her ability to work from home, as well as a stroller for her child. Any assistance you can provide with these items would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much for your continued support!
