Help Strengthen a Bio Family
The client is a single mother of three children, ages 17, 16, and 13. She recently removed herself and her children from an unsafe living situation and, for several months, they stayed in a single room in a friend’s home. With support from a local community agency, the client has successfully secured stable housing. The family is now working to rebuild and regain a sense of normalcy. The client currently earns income through contract work, including DoorDash, Uber, and Lyft, as she has not yet secured stable, full-time employment. She is putting in significant effort to improve her circumstances, and stable employment is a critical step in achieving long-term stability for her and her children. As the family is essentially starting over, they have only their clothing and a few personal belongings. The client is seeking assistance to pay the referral fees required to obtain furniture through the Furniture Bank. She would be deeply appreciative of any support that can be provided to help meet this need.

The mother recently sustained a fractured foot and a sprain in the other, and is currently using crutches and wearing a medical boot. She is the sole caregiver for her four children, ages 8, 2, 1, and a newborn. The family is temporarily residing in an extended stay hotel and is experiencing significant financial hardship. The children are currently in need of milk/formula and food. Although the mother receives food stamp benefits, they have been depleted and will not replenish until 5/23/25. She currently has only $5 in her bank account. The children's father is currently detained in jail, and as a result, the mother has had to stop working to care for the children full-time. Her extended family lives in New Jersey and is unable to offer financial support.

I’m reaching out on behalf of a hardworking family of five who are in urgent need of bunk beds. The family includes two young boys who are currently without a proper place to sleep. Right now, they are making do with what they have—sharing with siblings and crowded arrangements—but it’s far from ideal, and it’s beginning to take a toll. Despite their circumstances, this family is doing everything they can to stay afloat. They are kind, humble, and trying their best to provide stability and care for their children. But like many families facing financial hardship, they’ve had to make impossible choices—and a bed is simply something they can’t afford right now. Having a real bed would not only provide the children with physical comfort and rest—it would offer a sense of normalcy, dignity, and hope. If there is any way your organization could assist, whether through a donation or connection to resources, it would mean the world to this family.

Forsyth County DFCS is currently serving a family with a kinship placement in Roswell (30076). The kinship provider just lost her job and could use some assistance while she searches for a new one. She just spent over $2000 on car repairs so her funds are very tight for the month and the loss of employment has set her back even further. We are asking for assistance with groceries and gas. Thank you for your consideration in helping this relative caregiver who is trying to keep her grandchildren out of foster care.

I am writing in behalf of my client is a single mother of 3 who recently experienced a DV incident, leaving her in a state of crisis. With the assistance of a navigator, she sought immediate help and was able to secure temporary transportation through PADV. Unfortunately, the transportation attempts were unsuccessful as the Uber drivers refused to transport her due to the absence of car seats for her children. The client was given a 24-hour window to reach a shelter. However, due to the transportation issues, she was unable to make it within the given time frame. The following day, she was informed that the shelter spot had been taken. She spent the next three days trying to secure another spot without success.
In the meantime, the client contacted her landlord, who changed the locks to ensure her safety and has also lowered the rent to help client. She has also applied for additional public assistance, including TANF and Cash Assistance, and currently awaiting approval. The client has been a victim of financial abuse which has left her in a vulnerable financial state. She recently discovered that her ex-partner did not pay the light bill, resulting in an outstanding balance of $209. The electricity is scheduled for disconnection on May 9th, 2025. The client is urgently seeking assistance to cover the light bill to prevent disconnection. This support is crucial for her and her children as they navigate this challenging period and work towards stability and safety.
