Help Now	Cleaning the HVAC DUCT work Cleaning the HVAC ductwork in our home is an important need for my family, particularly because of my daughter's disability. Clean air circulation and reduced dust, allergens, and contaminants are essential to maintaining a healthy living environment and supporting her overall well-being. The cost to have the HVAC ductwork professionally cleaned is approximately $500–$600, which is a significant expense for our family at this time. I have explored other sources of assistance, including my daughter's CADI Waiver, but this service is not covered through those programs.

Help Now	Vulnerable adult that has been scammed out of all of his money needs help paying a phone bill A vulnerable adult in our community has been repeatedly targeted by scammers who have taken money from him. He is now in a position where we are implementing protective measures, but he will not be able to access any of his Social Security funds for two months until these protections are secured. Due to the scams, he has fallen behind on many of his bills, lost his vehicle, and now has an outstanding bill of $119 with Comcast/Xfinity that he cannot afford to pay. This bill is for his cell phone. He relies on his cell phone daily, and without it, he feels cut off from the world, especially since he has no vehicle and no way to leave his home.

Help Now	Daycare payment A young, single mother is in need of financial assistance for daycare for two kids as a prepayment to secure a spot. This mother is actively working to create stability and long-term success for her family. This mother has overcome significant challenges throughout her life, including strained family relationships, mental health struggles, and chemical health concerns. Despite these barriers, she has remained committed to her recovery and the wellbeing of her children. Recently, she secured daycare for two of her children, which is a major step toward maintaining employment and creating consistency for her family. However, she is in need of $500 to cover the required two-week daycare prepayment. Without this support, she risks losing the childcare placements that are essential to her ability to work and continue progressing toward stability. Providing this assistance would not only support her employment goals but would also provide her children with a safe and structured environment where they can learn and thrive during the day. Any support toward this childcare expense would make a meaningful and immediate impact on their stability and continued success.
