Reportedly, mother and father are currently experiencing financial hardships, and are in need of three twin sized beds or one bunkbed and one twin for the children, ages 13,10 and 8. Neither father nor mother are currently working, and the family cannot allocate funds towards a suitable bed for the children at the moment. The family is also in need of dressers for the children as their current dressers are falling apart.

A single mother is trying to reunify with her son and just started working in Riverside county. She originally lost her income when the child was removed, as she was receiving SSI for the child's special needs. Due to the child's complex needs the only foster home found was far from mother's current home address. She is also facing an eviction and financial struggles with taking food or clothing items for her child during her visits. She was able to purchase a very inexpensive used car from a friend with payments from her new job. She has already spent her first worked income on basic necessities and getting the car smogged and registered. The car now needs tires to be able to be driven safely. By assisting the mother with the purchase of the tires, it will allow her to maintain her new job, prevent her from being evicted, allo wher to continue completing her court orders and allow her to meet the foster parent half way for more visits with her son to help her reunify with him. Any donation woul dbe appreciated. See link for Walmart tires. Go To Link

This request is being made urgently for rental assistance and to prevent future eviction. It concerns a single mother whose newborn baby was injured by the child's father, who is currently incarcerated. The mother is working toward reunifying with her baby. Although she does not have employment at the moment, she has interviews lined up for evening work. She is also exploring with the department and 211 for any assistance they can provide. She is dedicated to her child and attends all of the baby's appointments, which means she will need to balance work with staying connected to her baby's care.

The mother needs $1,900 to cover her rent for July. Any assistance that can be provided would make a crucial difference in her situation. Being evicted or trying to find stable housing while working on the reunification process could complicate her case and hinder her ability to reunite with her child

Mother contacted the Management to see what options are available for her to work with them and not have eviction. Mother was informed that she has credit of $400 for over payment on another month. Mother needs $1,500 by the 3rd to avoid eviction. The management company is willing to work with her and give longer time to come up the full rent amount and work out a payment arrangement, but Mother must give a payment before or by the 3rd. Please consider donating, even if it is not the full amount this will help mother not be on the street.

I am writing on behalf of a devoted and selfless aunt who has recently taken on the unexpected but welcome responsibility of caring for her 6-week-old great-niece. While this new addition to her home is a true blessing, it has also brought urgent and unforeseen needs as she works to create a safe, nurturing, and organized environment for the baby.

One of the immediate needs is a functional dresser to store the baby’s clothing and other essential items. Unfortunately, the current dresser is broken and no longer safe or suitable for use. A stable, reliable piece of furniture would make a meaningful difference in helping this caregiver remain organized and provide the attentive care the child deserves.

I have been working with the parents of a baby who was born on 8/13/24 (almost 2 years old now). At the time of the baby's birth, they were struggling with substance abuse. Court denied reunification services, but the parents were determined to do whatever was necessary to prove that they could take the necessary steps to be able to parent their baby. On their own, they both (separately) completed extensive inpatient treatment programs, and then continued participating in outpatient services. They visited the baby regularly. In late 2024 they petitioned the court and were granted reunification services. Since then, they have maintained their sobriety, secured employment, and, most recently housing. Recently, they moved into a 2-bedroom apartment and the baby is being returned to their care. The parents have everything they need for the child, as that has been their priority. Other than that, they have very little for their new home. They need a bed, a dresser and a lamp. These parents have worked so hard, never given up; I have seen such a huge change in them. I'm very proud of all they have overcome and accomplished. I'd really like to help as they start their new life. Thank you in advance.

Please note: I submitted a request for this family for a stove and a couch; they were able to find a couch and their own and they decided they could live without a stove for now. So, this request is for the other items they still need.

A single mom who has been struggling with addiction is hoping to reunify with her young son and has overcome many obstacles. She has completed an inpatient program and is now in a sober living home and is maintaining sobriety. She would like to start looking for employment, but her clothing is old and tattered. She also needs toiletries and would like a few items to have when her son comes to visit (an outfit, toys, books). She was hoping for a gift card to Walmart so she could purchase these necessities.

Thank you.

Asking for monetary support to assist mother in paying a portion of her rent to prevent an eviction notice. This single mother fled a domestic violence situation, and has no family support. Mother has graduated from her domestic violence shelter and moved into an apartment with her children. Mother attends to the children full time. One of the children is autistic bringing additional responsibilities to mother. Mother is currently receiving a portion of her rent paid by Department of Children and Family Services. Support for this mother is greatly appreciated.

Dear Careportal, I am writing to respectfully request assistance in securing three beds and a crib for a single mother who is currently involved in an open DCFS case. This mother is a survivor of domestic violence and has recently taken a major step toward rebuilding her life by moving into her own apartment. Her children are in the process of being returned to her care, and while she is deeply committed to creating a safe and stable home, she currently does not have the financial means to provide beds for her children. Obtaining these beds would not only relieve significant stress for the mother but also offer her children a sense of stability, security, and comfort during this critical time of transition. Your support would allow this family to begin healing together in a safe and supportive environment. It would also enable the mother to focus on her continued progress, including maintaining her home and meeting the needs of her children. Thank you for your consideration and any assistance you may be able to provide.

I am reaching out to kindly request a donation of two pairs of sneaker shoes for two of our students who are currently experiencing financial hardship. At this time students are wearing shoes that are severely worn and falling apart, posing safety concerns and impacting their overall well-being. One student is female 16 and she wears a size 7.5 and sibling is male 13 and wears 5 boys/mens.

Your support in providing a replacement would make a meaningful difference in their daily comfort and confidence as they attend summer school.

Single father caring for two children who is struggling financially. Father was laid off from his evening job Friday 6/27 and is worried about losing his housing and car. FA is trying to get another job. One of the children has medical issues making public transportation detrimental to her health. Her exposure to the public should be limited. The family is at risk of losing their housing due to FA not being able to cover his bills. Father has been using money that would usually go to the rent to pay for the children's necessities. This one time assistance will help the father maintain his household financially.
