The children cannot live in the home of their grandmother who can take them. They were in a single parent home and Mom died, they are staying with an 84-year-old great-grandmother in a very small home and need to get into grandmas. She needs a dumpster urgently so that she can clean out her 2-bedroom home to accommodate the kids. She has too many boxes, bins and clutter to have them live with her comfortably or safely and there are 3 kids, so it really needs to be able to have all the rooms used. PLEASE HELP!! Great Grandmother cannot keep them. Would be great if this dumpster could get delivered on MONDAY so that they can get the house cleaned out by Friday and the kids can get into the home. Great Grandmother is hanging on, but barely!! A dumpster that is going to be delivered is being arranged, we are desperate to keep the kids with their grandma they have had so much tragedy and loss.

Dad is having trouble finding a job as a felon. The mother left the baby and he is trying to remain connected with the baby. He needs and wants to visit everyday but not having money for gas is making it hard for him to visit. He wants to keep a strong bond with his daughter. He is needing gas cards to help him go see his daughter more.

This family has experienced hit after hit recently, and just when they think they get ahead, they take two steps back. Moving forward, they will be able to pay rent, and have already secured July's rent. However, due to some miscommunication the family owes a little over half of June's rent, utility fees, and late fees for the month of June. The family is looking for other resources to pay, and the school social worker has referred them to Northland Miracles, but getting this paid for and helping them have a $0 balance as they head into July would relieve the stress on the entire family. The total they currently need help with is 973.29, but there is a possibility that more late fees will accrue between now and July 1st.

The family moved from Iowa to live with family member’s in a trailer home, they have limited space and trash has piled up and smell is lingering in the home, they needed to work on cleaning to keep child safe. The family is needing help with a dumpster and carpet cleaning. The family moved in with additional family and is a lower-income home. Using a church dumpster is also an option for this family. The carpet cleaning that is needed can be professional or a unit being rented from a local store. Thanks!

A mother whom currently resides in Clay county has lost custody of her children and they are currently in Children's Division care and custody. The mother was residing with the father in their home; however, one day he never returned from "work" and had taken their only working vehicle, most of the money in their accounts, the mother's methadone, and left the mother in the home with past due bills. The mother could greatly benefit from assistance with paying her past due bills so that she can at least have another month or so in her home until a better situation is located for her. The home is way past due on mortgage, I believe she stated 3 payments are past due and we are worried about the home being foreclosed on and mom becoming homeless because of this.
