A foster home in Delaware County is needing assistance with an air conditioning repair. It Is probably needing to be replaced altogether. The foster parent has had technicians look at it. She’s getting different answers. The unit is over 30 years old . The foster parent could have the unit repaired for around $700. Repairing or replacing would be wonderful. This is a foster parent who helps out with respite and emergency placements when our kiddos are in transition to a longer term placements. She is a bridge we are so fortunate to have. She rarely says no when asked to take in a child. It could be a day or a few days, She opens her home, no hesitation. With the summer upon us, temperatures are rising and temperatures are rising in her home. Taking in children is becoming more difficult as she is using portable air units and can only cool so many rooms. This limits her to how many children she will take in because she refuses to have the children sleep in a hot room. We really want to connect her with the right resources to fix her air conditioning unit, because she is not having any luck at this moment. We always appreciate the time to consider this request.

This is a single parent kinship placement on a limited income. The family is in need of an electric cook stove. The existing stove is believed to have shorted out. The oven turned on by itself and would not turn off. The stove has to be unplugged to get it to turn off. This has limited what the family can cook. The family would love to be able to cook safely again on a stove. The family also needs two tires for the their car as the ones they have are bald. They have been able to come up with two on their own but would benefit from two more so they can safely drive to and from the grocery store, doctor appointments, and any other daily activities. The tires are 235/50R18.
