Single mother and her three children need assistance paying rent on their new apartment so they can finally have longterm housing.

Mother is currently staying at a long-term stay hotel where she has been harrassed and attacked at by other guests. She has been staying there after being kicked out of a shelter that was supposed to help her until she found more permanent housing and was allegedly robbed and manipulated by a service provider who took her money (which following a significant period of time was returned) and many of her items (which still have not been returned). However, Mother's section 8 voucher has been granted and she will be able to move into an apartment which she has secured but needs to put a down payment on. By helping her with this, she and her children will have long-term stable housing.

He has an hourly job, but can only work limited weekend hours now due to his vocational training, which is unpaid. He pays his own rent and car insurance, recently bought a car, does not receive food stamps, and saves money to pay for gas to visit his two younger siblings who are also in foster care. Up until this year, he has paid his rent in full, but he currently owes $800 in back rent and is struggling to afford groceries due to his unpaid vocational training. Meeting his needs will help him maintain independent living, avoid eviction, and cover groceries so that he can complete vocational training and have a successful career when he ages out of foster care.
