The child is an infant and has been placed in relative care with the maternal grandmother. In this home is also a toddler, which is the sibling to the child in care. The grandmother is asking for help with a double stroller to help make transporting and going out in public with the children easier for the grandmother and safer for both children. The children are both female and enjoy normal girl colors. The infant is 4 months old and the toddler is 2.

Grace Bible has been connected with a family currently in the adoption process who is in need of assistance. The caregiver has taken placement of his brother’s two children, and the family is moving towards adoption. They have requested assistance with a portion of their electric bill this month. The family has paid a portion of the bill, but has requested assistance with covering the remaining portion.

A two-parent family is currently caring for an 18-month-old girl but are facing significant financial challenges and a family emergency. Due to these difficulties, they are struggling to meet her basic needs and are seeking temporary support while they look for family members to care for her. Their goal is to avoid foster care and keep her within the family.

They urgently need clothing for an 18-month-old girl, size 5 Pampers diapers (the only brand she can tolerate due to sensitive skin), and baby wipes of any kind. Any assistance provided will help this family provide comfort to this child during a difficult time.

The family is in need of two toddler beds, mattresses and bedding. The children are a two year old male and a three year old female. Both children are exhibiting trauma related behaviors which has resulted in them breaking their current beds. The children are in need of new beds to provide appropriate sleeping arrangements and preserve the current placement. The male child is into mickey mouse and bluey. The female child is into girly things, like unicorns, the color pink, and bluey.

The family is in need of a new bedroom door. The child placed in the home is on track for adoption. However, the child has some trauma related behaviors that has resulted in needing a new bedroom door. The family would like a door to help prevent any injuries and to help sustain the placement. The door needed is a 48in by 80in Solid Core Primed Composite Double Prehung French Door.

The caregiver has taken in her 4-month-old grandson after being removed from the parents. The caregiver could benefit from assistance with a crib and bedding. She has been able to provide for the other material needs upon placement of the child. Caregiver has agreed to facilitate the child in a nurturing and safe environment for as long as the child remains unsafe with the parents.

The maternal grandmother took in her 5 grandchildren ages 5 months to 7 years old to keep them together and out of foster care. The grandmother's car, which she uses to transport the children to daycare, school, appointments, and visitations with their mother is now in need of breaks. The grandmother is not yet receiving caregiver funds as this is a new case, and the children have not been adjudicated. The grandmother is requesting assistance to get her breaks fixed so she can continue to care for the children and ensure she is safe while transporting them.
