March is coming to an end, and we still have a few outstanding needs we’d love to get filled before the month wraps up. If you’re able to help, please see the list of needs below.
1.) We are reaching out to ask for your help supporting one of our residents who has been working hard to rebuild his life. Recently, he experienced the devastating loss of his daughter, he seemed to be coping for the few months following but recently had a mental health crisis requiring hospitalization. Due to his hospitalization, he is now facing a shortfall of $1200 for his rent. We are working to raise these funds to relieve this financial burden so he can focus on his healing and recovery. Any amount you can contribute will make a difference. Thank you for being a source of hope and support during this incredibly difficult time.

2.) We have a need for a gas gift card for one of the men in our Opportunity Homes program. He is actively working toward stability and is in need of transportation assistance to get to work, appointments, and essential errands. If you can help with a $200 gas gift card, it would be greatly appreciated!

3.) I have a mother on my caseload that has a 15-year-old son and a 12-year-old daughter, and they need some clothing and shoes. They clothes do not have to be brand new. The girl prefers jeans, and the boy prefers sweatpants. The girl has ASD and is learning how to shave. Mom is also needing a safer razor for her daughter, so that she does not cut herself. She is also sensitive to load noises and is looking for ASD headphones. Mom said that any little thing helps and she appreciates however you can help.
