Bike for exercise and community inclusion

I have a client who has been dealing with some ongoing medical issues and was in and out of the hospital. She now feels well enough to ride a bike out in the community. This will improve her strength, as well as increase her independence with accessing the community. She does not have a driver's license and this will allow her to ride her bike to pick up her needed medications or other items. If anyone has an adult woman's bike they no longer use and would want to donate my client would greatly appreciate it!

5th Birthday Surprise

I am currently working with the cutest little 4-year-old who turns 5 in just a few short days. This kiddo has been in placement for a few months and has endured a lot of trauma. My hope is that we can cover the cost (visa gift card) of her birthday surprise. The foster parents are planning on bringing her to the Mall of America to surprise her with a princess makeover! Transitioning into a real-life princess for the day would make her birthday extra special.

Storage Unit in Shakopee

Client is currently in shelter until the 7/26 she previously lived on a farm in Shakopee and needs to have her items removed by the end of the month. Since she's in a hotel she doesn't have a place to put the items she wants to take with her in Storage until she finds somewhere to rent. So we're asking for 2 months of storage at Scott County Mini Storage. The unit would be 10x10 for $160.
