| Help Now | P.O Box neededI am currently assisting a mother who is experiencing homelessness. She is actively applying for various services and job opportunities but faces a significant barrier: she does not have a permanent address. To overcome this hurdle, we are looking into securing a P.O. Box for her. According to the local post office, the cost for a small P.O. Box rental for a period of six months is $101.00. Having this P.O. Box would provide her with a stable mailing address, which is essential for receiving important correspondence related to her job applications and social services. Securing this box would be immensely beneficial and could make a meaningful difference in her efforts to rebuild her life.Submitted by: Scott County Child Protection | Scott County | No | 08/08/2026 | Closed - Filled through FISH | |
| Help Now | Request for Household FurnitureI am requesting assistance for my 17-year-old client, who recently moved into her father’s home. While her father has been able to provide housing, he does not currently have a bed or dresser for her. At this time, my client does not have a proper bed to sleep in, and her clothing is being kept in a pile on the floor because there is no dresser or other storage available. Providing a bed and dresser would help meet her basic needs and create a more stable, safe, and comfortable living environment as she adjusts to her new home. Any assistance with these essential items would be greatly appreciated.Submitted by: Scott County Child Protection | All Locations | No | 08/15/2026 | Closed - CanceledFulfilledOffers | |
