| Help Now | Veteran in Need of AssistanceUpdate: I am working with a 33-year-old veteran who is a responsible person that doesn't do drugs or drink. He was recently unemployed but now has a job opportunity that he is hoping will start before Christmas. He will just need some assistance to get him through the two weeks or so before he receives his first paycheck. He would be grateful for whatever assistance that could be provided--including Uber gift cards to help get back and forth to work (he doesn't currently have a vehicle). Any of the following would help cover short-term needs related to rent, food, and transportation expenses: $100 for Uber gift cards $200 for grocery gift cards $300 to help pay rent Thank you in advance for any help that can be provided.Submitted by: St. Michael's Catholic Church | Prior Lake | Yes | 01/02/2026 | Closed - Canceled | |

| Help Now | 💛 Let’s Support a Hardworking Mom Building Her New Start 💛We’ve been in contact with a single mom who recently exited homelessness with her 5-year-old son. She’s also 16 weeks pregnant and doing everything she can to create a stable home and future for her family. Due to some pregnancy complications, she had to take a week off work without pay and will need to take additional time off next week during MEA to care for her son. These missed workdays have made things especially tight this month. She recently covered an unexpected car repair with her own savings, showing her determination to stay self-sufficient — but now she’s in need of some short-term help to get through this tough stretch. We’re hoping to raise: 🛒 $250 Target gift card for groceries 🚗 $90 to help cover her car insurance this month This mom works hard whenever she’s able and rarely asks for help. We truly believe this will be a one-time need as she continues to get back on her feet and look toward her bright future. Every bit of help means so much — thank you for being part of her new beginning. 💕Submitted by: FISH | Shakopee | No | 10/31/2025 | Closed - Canceled | |

| Help Now | Rent Needed for a Family on the Path to ReunificationWe are seeking to raise $2,150 to cover one month of rent for a mother and her children. The single mother has made remarkable progress in reunifying with her children. She is currently in law school, working toward her goal of becoming a lawyer, and had carefully planned her finances and childcare around her education. Unfortunately, her student loan funds, which were expected to cover housing costs, have been delayed without clear communication, leaving her without the resources to pay rent this month like she originally planned. This mother has shown resilience, stability, and commitment to her sobriety, education and parenting, and providing this support will ensure her family has the stability they need during this critical stage of reunification.Submitted by: Scott County | Savage | No | 1759795200 | Closed - Canceled | |
