Family with 5 children are needing to start over due to their home and all contents being part of a fire. They are needing just about everything to start their lives over. They are hoping to get into a new place by this weekend, if not within 24 hours. Someone is helping them with beds and clothing, but they are needing the community's help for the following supplies.

Thank you & have a blessed day!!

Please help preserve the placement of two very busy children with their grandparents by providing the children the ability to attend YMCA day camp for the next 4 weeks until school begins. The children attended summer school, but it has now ended resulting in the children having limited peer interaction and increased fighting in the home. Their grandfather just had an extended stay in the hospital and is still recovering which has made it very difficult for grandparents to plan and participate in activities with the kids. A consistent routine is crucial to keeping the children stable and safe between now and the start of the school year.

Grandmother with guardianship of her granddaughter has recently become homeless and is in desperate need of a storage shed to store their belongings. The two have a safe place to stay at this time but are in fear of losing the only personal belongings and furniture they have as they cannot take all of it with them. Getting a storage shed would greatly help this family and prevent them from having even more hardship to overcome when they establish their own housing.

We are seeking assistance to purchase a twin size bed to allow a kinship placement provider to home a sibling to a youth they already have in their home. This kinship home is an adoptive resource for both youth and we would love to see these kids obtain permanency together.

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.
