Two young boys were removed from there mom because of an unsafe situation. They have reintegrated back home with their dad who was not in the home with them originally. The family is fully reintegrated but there are court fees that the dad cannot fully cover and the family will not be finished with court until the fees are covered. The fees are supposed to be shared with the kids mom but she will most likely not be helping so the family is asking for help to cover her portion of the court fees.

The boys are doing well with their dad and the dad would like to be finished with the court system and have the boys full time with him.

The youth is currently in need of a Twin box spring to help create a more comfortable and supportive sleeping arrangement in her new placement. At this time, she is unable to get proper rest due to the lack of this essential item, which is impacting her overall comfort and ability to fully settle into her environment.

Single-mother of one recently had to leave an abusive relationship over the weekend. She was unable to take some baby supplies with her. She is lacking some baby supplies currently and requested a pack-n-play specifically. She has moved in her with her parents for the time being. She and her parents are working on procuring some other supplies but would appreciate all support that the local community can offer.

On July 31, 2025 there will be a Back to School Fair at Platte County Health Department. Our goal is to provide low-income students and families of Platte County an equal and safe opportunity for school readiness by enriching physical, mental, and social well-being. In 2024, 885 children were provided with backpacks, hygiene packets, eye screenings, dental screenings, sports physicals, vaccines, and access to community resources. We are still in need of individually bagged earbuds. Each child receives earbuds in their backpack to be used in the classroom. (The items we puchase for the backpacks are based ont he lists the schools provide us.) We have previously found the earbuds on amazon in bulk $22.00 per 50 count. This would help to finish up the final items needed for the backpacks. We are in need of 200 earbuds total.

Good morning, wonderful people. We hope your July is going well. DCCCA in Mission, Kansas, is seeking your incredible support to help a mother of six cover the cost of a domestic violence assessment. This mother and her children have experienced significant trauma, as you can imagine. Currently, DCCCA is providing social services and therapeutic support to the children. We are reaching out for your assistance to help this mother get back on her feet. You could be the light at the end of the tunnel for her family, providing them with the support and care they need. Thank you for taking the time to read this message and for partnering with us. You are the hands and feet of our Lord, and for that, we are truly grateful.

The children cannot live in the home of their grandmother who can take them. They were in a single parent home and Mom died, they are staying with an 84-year-old great-grandmother in a very small home and need to get into grandmas. She needs a dumpster urgently so that she can clean out her 2-bedroom home to accommodate the kids. She has too many boxes, bins and clutter to have them live with her comfortably or safely and there are 3 kids, so it really needs to be able to have all the rooms used. PLEASE HELP!! Great Grandmother cannot keep them. Would be great if this dumpster could get delivered on MONDAY so that they can get the house cleaned out by Friday and the kids can get into the home. Great Grandmother is hanging on, but barely!! A dumpster that is going to be delivered is being arranged, we are desperate to keep the kids with their grandma they have had so much tragedy and loss.

DSS is looking to explore resources that can support this hardworking family. They have made incredible strides in transforming their home from a hoarding situation, showcasing their dedication and resilience. However, they are in need of essential items like clean beds and a gently sofa, as well as functional air conditioning units. With the heat rising, it’s crucial to address their comfort and well-being. Both adults are stepping into the workforce and are ready to collaborate with local churches to create a plan for support. Together, we can help them thrive in their new environment. Thank you for your support for this family.

Family of 3 currently experiencing a sudden hardship. Mom and 2 kids left their home due to unforeseen circumstance. Family is staying with another family member right now until they can secure their own housing. Family lost most of their income due to the move and mom is currently working part time. Family currently only has the clothing that they left with and could benefit from any support. Mom identified urgent needs being - Hygiene products, clothing, and gas. Mom was able to apply for EBT, health insurance, and is actively working to secure housing.

If request is able to be met it would free up some of mom's funds and allow her to shift her focus to saving for housing.

A young person is in urgent need of a $200 Uber gift card to get to and from work, which is 20 minutes away. Right now, their entire paycheck is going toward paying for Ubers, leaving nothing left to save for a car. They're working hard, trying to stay consistent and build a better future, but the cost of transportation is making it incredibly difficult. This support would help lighten the load and give them a real chance to gain stability and keep moving forward.

Dad is having trouble finding a job as a felon. The mother left the baby and he is trying to remain connected with the baby. He needs and wants to visit everyday but not having money for gas is making it hard for him to visit. He wants to keep a strong bond with his daughter. He is needing gas cards to help him go see his daughter more.
