Client has limited resources/income, and needs daycare while exercising.

Update: Two months of fees were donated to this need. Thank you for your generosity! Can anyone donate another month's membership? I am working with a client who would like to exercise to lose weight, and get healthier. She is a single mother of 3, and has applied for a scholarship through the local YMCA. She would have to pay $32/month to join. The YMCA is the only local option that is able to provide the child care she will need while she works out. This would also be a healthy outlet for the kids to engage with others socially. If someone is willing to donate towards the cost of the monthly enrollment that would be helpful. My Client feels she could contribute some, but only gets $437 in cash each month for a family of 4. Our unit will pay the initial $65 which will pay for the membership through Sept 1st. The YMCA will use the county debit card to automatically deduct the $32.50/ongoing. However our unit can't pay ongoing for this need, and will have to cancel the membership if funds aren't found elsewhere. So we need $32.50-$325.00 to continue a year long membership. Thanks for your consideration!

A young family I am currently working with is in need of a larger car seat for their 5 month old son. He is currently growing out of his infant car seat, as he has long legs, and would like to transition him to a rear facing 5-40 lb car seat, if possible. This will allow him room to grow and stretch his legs when he is in the car.

We are looking for 3 $15 McDonald's gift cards to be donated as rewards for two different families we are working with. The gift cards would be used for rewards when each of the students gets up and attends summer school a certain number of days in a row. When the student reaches the goal, the student would get a gift card to take his/her siblings out to dinner at McDonald's. The family is looking forward to working towards the goal.
