A 12 years old boy only started attending school for the last 2 weeks of the 23-24 school year. He is going into 7th grade and cannot do basic math and cannot read fluently, though he has made progress in letter and sight word recognition with his tutor over the summer. It is essential that this child continue tutoring services for the month of July to get ready for school in August. He is making growth very quickly. Tutoring occurs two times a week for two hour sessions for the entire month of July, totaling a cost of $1100. We are requesting a check to cover these funds.

The biological mother of a child that has been placed in foster care has been evicted from her apartment. This mother is living in her van until something else is figured out. She has had difficulties getting approved for SNAP and is in need of some help with non-perishable items to keep in her van. I am requesting a $100 Wal-Mart gift card so that she can buy some food.

The mother is in need of assistance. The mother is working hard to try and support her 3 children (triplets) and keep her family together. The mother needs assistance with diapers and clothing items for the triplets. They just turned 6 months old. The children are size 2 diapers and 6 months and up in clothing. This request would assist the mother because the mother is challenged with being the only round the clock caregiver and has no other family in Colorado other than 5 year old son and husband. A gift card to a place where she can purchase these items would be great, or donation of these actual items. Thank you so much.

They could benefit from a Walmart gift card in any amount for clothing and groceries.
