Teen desiring some new clothing

Working with a 13 y/o female client who is experiencing bullying from her peers because she doesn't wear name brands. This student is one of six kids and her parents recently divorced. This student has experienced significant home changes. Mother is experiencing a tighter budget at this time and can't afford new clothing. The student is a good student who is friendly to all of her peers. She shows up to school enthusiastically and enjoys learning. It is my hope to reward her efforts and make her feel heard/seen by getting her a $150 GC to Kohls so she can find clothes she can proudly wear and decrease the negative attention.

Family in need

A local mother and her two children (a teenager and a baby) have finally secured a home of their own after the difficult transition following her husband's deportation. While they have a roof over their heads, they are truly starting from scratch. We are looking for donations to help transform their empty apartment into a warm, functional home. We are currently seeking kitchen essentials (microwave, blender, pots/pans, dishes) and household basics (cleaning supplies, trash cans). Gift cards for groceries and gas are welcome too. Your generosity will help this family find the stability and comfort they deserve. UPDATE: Thank you for your incredible generosity. While the family has received many of their needed items, a few gaps remain. If you are able to help, they are still looking for a blender, trash cans, and gift card for groceries. Thanks again for your support!
