Christ Church Grand Rapids

Grace's Table is about to meet 50+ new teen mamas! Our annual Diaper Day is June 9th and mamas (ages 13 to 24-years-old) can get free diapers and wipes for each of their kiddos. As our largest outreach event of the year, Diaper Day is an investment in the dignity of young families in Grand Rapids. No mama should ever have to choose between buying diapers and putting food on the table! While at Grace's Table for Diaper Day, families will have the chance to meet our partners from Corewell Health, Catherine's Health Center, and Nurse Family Partnership just to name a few. We'll have on-site car seat safety education and families who lack a car seat or simply have an unsafe model can get a brand new one! Families who already attend Grace's Table are also eligible, so we expect a packed house!

Mamas at Grace's Table are surrounded by circles of support as they invest in themselves. Here, they find resources to advance their education/career goals, find safe housing, and connect with mental health support. Diaper Day brings dozens of brand new families into our community and you can be a part of the celebration! Donating diapers and wipes ensures clean buns and new relationships. We've listed the diaper sizes and numbers we need to make sure every family feels valued and connected. Your church's investment is critical! If you have questions, please let us know!

I am reaching out on behalf of a family that is currently going through a very difficult time due to circumstances beyond their control. The family has been separated, and the mother—who is eight months pregnant—is now caring for her four young children.

With the father previously being the main provider, they are facing significant financial hardship. The mother is in urgent need of support to help care for her children and prepare for the arrival of the new baby.

They are especially in need of:

Food for the children Baby items such as a car seat, diapers, wipes, and newborn essentials

Any contribution, no matter how small, would make a meaningful difference during this incredibly challenging time. Your kindness and support are deeply appreciated.

Thank you for opening your heart to a family in need.

I have a family that got behind on their electric bill and needs support paying off $350 in order to keep the power on. She is out of a job, has experienced domestic abuse over the last year on a few different occasions, and struggles with her mental health while parenting the two children alone.

I am working with a family who has two young boys, ages 8 and 13. Both the family and the children have expressed a strong need for extracurricular activities to help keep the boys engaged and occupied over the summer. The children have shown interest in receiving items such as bikes, soccer balls, basketballs, and footballs. Any suggestions or support for summer activities that would benefit the boys are greatly appreciated.

Bethany Christian Services is working to serve more pregnant and parenting teenagers and have created a new placement opportunity for these individuals. We currently have 3 identified youth and hope to serve a 4th in the near future. Each of these youth has a child or will and will be in need of a crib for their child upon arrival to the program. These are refugee foster youth who many have become pregnant against their will, yet have committed to sustaining the pregnancy and giving life to their babies. They are now on a hard journey of being adolescents with children, and alone. We are hoping to receive foldable cribs so that they can be easily transported and stored if necessary between placements. These will initially serve 4 youth but will be kept to continue serving more youth in the future. An example of what would be ideal is here: Go To Link

I am writing on behalf of a family of three—a mother and her two young sons—who are recent survivors of domestic violence. The family is of Indian descent, and the mother has limited English proficiency. She is currently employed and making every effort to support her children and regain stability after the traumatic events they recently experienced. Due to the circumstances surrounding the domestic violence incident, the mother has fallen behind on her rent for the month of June. Her total rent is $1,400, and she is currently short $750. She is actively seeking additional employment to supplement her income and stabilize her family's situation, but immediate assistance is needed to help her avoid the risk of eviction and further instability. Any amount would be greatly appreciated and will go directly toward ensuring this family can remain safely housed as they work toward healing and rebuilding their lives.

The placement needs diapers (size 3), wipes, and formula for a 4 month old baby girl. She mentioned that she uses the Huggies brand for both diapers and wipes, and Similac Advance for the formula. She utilizes WIC however, the growing baby girl goes through what WIC provides and eventually needs more. I am trying to preserve this placement for the child as it is a relative caregiver. Thank you.

This family is requesting help with getting a newborn/baby bathtub. They do not have access to a bathtub, only a stand up shower. This item can be lightly used or new.
