| Help Now | Reclining seat in car that needs repair with driver’s seat in permanent reclining position!Senior who recently went through unexpected divorce is trying to supplement income with driving for Uber, needs her driver's side, front, car seat fixed since it won't stay in an upright position. It got stuck in a permanent reclining position which is not recommended for driving and especially when transporting customers from the airport which is what she is planning to do considering that is safest place to obtain customers, for a female driver. She knows someone who is able to fix the seat, but needs about $250.00 for the repair. She is placing a cushion between her back and the seat but knows this isn't a permanent fix, nor would it be advisable for a "professional" driver and may even not be legal. It would correctly appear to be dangerous should the pillow become dislodged in the commute and cause her to be flung backwards losing sight of on-coming traffic and losing control of the vehicle. This would be a very hazardous situation, and she is aware that the current modification can only be temporary.Submitted by: CAP (Scott-Carver-Dakota) | Burnsville | No | 1790726400 | Closed - Filled through FISH | |

| Help Now | Request for Grocery Gift Cards$400 Walmart Grocery Giftcard Requesting grocery gift card assistance for an individual who is experiencing an unexpected housing transition due to her landlord ending her lease months earlier than anticipated. This situation has placed her and her family in a difficult position, as they are now working diligently to save every available dollar for moving expenses, security deposits, application fees, and other costs associated with securing new housing. While prioritizing her housing stability, her family's budget for everyday necessities, including groceries, has become extremely limited. Grocery gift cards would provide meaningful support during this challenging time by helping her meet her household's needs while allowing her to preserve her limited financial resources for the upcoming move. This assistance would help reduce some of the stress and uncertainty she is facing and allow her to focus on obtaining safe and stable housing for her and her family. Any grocery gift card support would be greatly appreciated and would make a significant difference as she navigates this unexpected transition. Thank you for your consideration and compassion in supporting this individual and their family during a vulnerable time.Submitted by: Mt.
