Needing clothes and hygiene items for 2 boys, (size 7/8 and 10/12). Shorts, tshirts, pajamas/sweatpants, underwear, socks. Shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, body wash, laundry detergent, etc. Mom has 4 children of her own and is also watching her nephew for the summer, and nephews parents are not able to provide these items for him.

Working with a newly expecting mother who is needing some work pants (Black - size 2x & 3x) Also, she is needing a few pairs of shorts and summer shirts (size 2x-3x) as she has none. She has limited support and was recently homeless but has been able to locate a place and gain employment. Thanks!

A mother whom currently resides in Clay county has lost custody of her children and they are currently in Children's Division care and custody. The mother was residing with the father in their home; however, one day he never returned from "work" and had taken their only working vehicle, most of the money in their accounts, the mother's methadone, and left the mother in the home with past due bills. The mother could greatly benefit from assistance with paying her past due bills so that she can at least have another month or so in her home until a better situation is located for her. The home is way past due on mortgage, I believe she stated 3 payments are past due and we are worried about the home being foreclosed on and mom becoming homeless because of this.

A single mom taking care of her mother and three kids is needing help getting food in the house. With the kids home for summer and price of food she has had a harder time with groceries. Either a gift card or a grocery load would be very much appreciated.

Thank you!!

Family of (4) needs immediate assistance with food. Father works. Mother stays home with their newborn and toddler. Since the father has the vehicle, mother is unable to get to the food kitchen. She gets her stamps on the 11th, but is currently out of food. Could anyone assist with the following items?

Chicken, hamburger, 1% milk, cereal, cheese, bread, eggs, juice, and purified water bottles.

Grandma is raising 8 of her grandchildren. She is requesting a day bed or a day bed with a trundle underneath. Three of her grandchildren are under the age of three. She likes to rock them to sleep in her arms. She would like to have a daybed in the living room so she would be able to rock them to sleep and transfer them over to the day bed so they can nap. They are too heavy for her to carry them asleep to their rooms. Also, she would love to have a wide rocking chair so both her and her grandbabies can fit while she is rocking them. Grandma is the backbone of the family. She needs to take care of her body in order to be able to care for all her grandbabies.

Mother is currently needing help due to recent injury at work and getting paid less. She is concerned about her son stealing the marijuana she is using to assist her medically and that is causing major tension in the household. Mother has asked to see if we can help get her a medical lock box for her personal belongings.

There is a single mother with three children in need of a stove and a refrigerator. She has a gas hookup for her stove but does not have her gas turned on, so she would need an electric stove along with the adaptor to make it work in a gas hook up. She is not currently working, but does have a job interview on the 19th of May.

There is a mother in need of a refrigerator and an electric dryer/ washing machine. The mother is not working currently because she stays home with her younger children. The mother lives with her father (the children's grandfather) and he does work. The mom stated they recently moved to a new residence that they are renting, and it did not come with these appliances.

The school community closet Warrior Closet gives every kid who visits for back-to-school backpack and school clothes shopping a brand new pair of shoes to start school in. We are preparing for our August 5th opening back. We had 99 kids come through last year for the three-day 6hrs of events. I like to put this out early so people contributing can keep an eye on the sales and when, especially Famous footwear and or Rackroom, do buy one get one 1/2 off bogos on shoes and backpacks. They also put a lot of shoes on clearance that you can buy with the BOGOs too. The kids 11 through size 1 love the character shoes. The 2 and or above ones I would do something they can wear more with everything.

Mom is wanting to get rid of it entirely, but doesn't have the funds. Mom also lacks some furniture in the home and could use help getting a couch or two.
