The agency is trying to assist an elderly couple with their utility bill for 465.00 The husband is experiencing health issues and has recently had a stroke putting him on medical leave from work. The wife had to take unpaid leave from work to provide caretaking for the spouse. They are having a struggle to maintain their financial responsibilities for utilities. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you kindly.

The agency is currently working with a grandmother who has taken her grandchild in as a Kinship Placement. The child is 11 and she also has a child age 12. The grandmother is living in subsidized housing. She is working two jobs to make ends meet. The apartment only has beds, and no other furnishings. The agency is requesting a donation of a sofa, kitchen table with chairs, and a two dressers / chest of drawers for the children. The items do not need to be matching sets and gently used is fine. Please consider helping to make this placement successful and more comfortable for the children.

The agency is working with a 16-year-old male in foster care. He recently moved from a group home to a Fictive Kin Foster Home. He is doing well in his placement. The home is located out in the country and there aren't many activities close to the home. The agency is requesting a basketball goal and a basketball for him to use at the home. This would keep him busy and off of video games / TV. At Wal Mart, they are under $150.00. If someone would help get this for the young man, he would greatly appreciate it.
