Help Reintegrate a Survivor of Human Trafficking
We are working with a client who is a mom of 8, needing assistance with her car. Grace Mobile Repair has assessed the car and determined that the fuel pressure sensor needs repaired. The total amount includes the part, as well as the labor. This single mom is trying to keep her job, as well as provide for her kids. Her only mode of transportation is vital for this family. They are also battling some housing insecurity, so stable transportation would be a big win for this family.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing
The family, single mother, is in an urgent need of start up costs to cover vehicle insurance so the mother can continue to work and provide for her family. She is in great need to pay this ASAP in order to not disrupt the continuity of care for her whole household. At this time all her funds go towards food and shelter and she has expressed she doesn't have the extra money needed to pay this need so she can continue to drive without any further penalties.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing
We have been focusing on building a strong support network for this single mom of 5 young children. She is maintaining employment and is the sole provider for the family, all while undergoing medical treatments for an extremely serious condition. Her washing machine recently started leaking large amounts of water from underneath, making it unusable. She has been washing the family's clothes by hand in the sink to get by; however, this is very difficult with herself and 5 children in the home. Due to her limited income, she cannot pay a repair person to look at the washing machine or to replace it. We are requesting either someone who knows how to work on washers or a used machine she could have.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family
Hey Team, since we are "Serving with Joy" I have a single mom that is currently in need and is employed with Wichita State University. She did some extra contractual work in marketing for WSU and when they finally paid her, it was short by $400. She was expecting the full amount in order to meet her rent. This underpayment was unexpected and unforeseen and is causing a hardship for her and her family. She is asking for help to secure her monthly rent. Any and all help is welcomed.

This pregnant mom and her family are trying to move into a new apartment by the end of the month when their lease ends. She has to pay off a lease from a previous apartment before she is able to move into a new place. We are working on long-term planning for jobs, housing, and childcare. However, she is unable to move forward on any of those until she has this lease paid off and has a place to stay at the end of the month. She has about half of it saved up so far and needs about $500 to finally end that debt!

Hey CarePortal family, I have a request for help from a single mom. Her husband deserted the family without any financial support and he has no plans of returning. To ensure that this bio family of three can stay together safely, they need their utilities paid off (Evergy $1300.00 and Kansas Gas $609.00) because this is hindering their ability to get new service at another location. They also need help finding a new home or apartment to rent. This is a very difficult and stressful situation for this family and they could really use our help. I am requesting each need as a separate CAREPORTAL request.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family
This mom of 2 is asking for financial assistance as she steps back into work after having her youngest child. While she was in the last month of pregnancy her car stopped working. While she was on maternity leave she was able to make life work with her newborn and 2 year-old by staying home or using ride-shares sparingly. However, now that her maternity leave is done and she is going back to work, her insurance will not cover the cost of a rental while her car is being fixed. She is asking for financial help so that she can maintain going to work, but also having a running vehicle to get her children to appointments and daycare while her car is being repaired, which is estimated to take a month.

Help Preserve a Foster Care Placement
A faith-based organization that takes care of youth in foster care had two freezers quit working last week. They are currently getting a lot of free frozen meals and meat from the Food Bank and are constantly needing freezer space to store food. The freezers they are looking at are around $700 each. They do have two specific freezers they are looking at so they can give you the model number or put cash toward it. They are appreciative of any help they can get as they feed up to 37 youth in foster care each day.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement
A kinship family recently took placement of their two young grandsons, providing them with the stability and love they desperately need. However, like many relatives who step in during times of crisis, they were not financially prepared for the sudden addition of two growing boys to their household.
At the moment, both children are sharing a single queen bed, which is not a sustainable or comfortable long-term solution. Each child needs their own bed—a space of their own to rest, grow, and feel secure. Separate beds will not only support the children's physical and emotional well-being, but also help preserve the stability of this new family arrangement.
We are seeking two twin mattresses and bed frames to meet this urgent need. Your donation will help ensure this family can remain together in a safe and supportive environment.
If you’re able to donate a new or gently used twin mattress or frame—or contribute financially toward purchasing one—we would be deeply grateful. Your support makes a real difference for children and families in need.
Please reach out if you're able to help—thank you for being part of the village that supports families in transition.

Help Make a Foster Care Placement
The Foster Care Homes and the Licensing departments with Saint Francis works with relative, NRKIN, and general care foster homes, and tend to run into needs of these items listed to remain in compliance with DCF. SFM workers like to have these items on hand to help accommodate our families and ensuring they remain in compliance so children can remain in their home. Fire extinguishers, first aid kits, fire and CO2 detectors, and medication lock boxes are of the greatest need. Thank you for your consideration.
