| Help Now | Single mom in neded!FISH Family! I am working with a single mom of a child who has some unique needs. The family recently secured housing following the city purchasing the land of the previous apartment resulting in the need to move. Mom is working full-time, but often needs to take time for appointments and school challenges to support her child. Within the last week mom has been having some car challenges and is in need of a new water pump. She has called 10+ auto shops to get the best rate for the work. Mom has found a shop that is able to complete the work for $1000. Mom is struggling to come up with payment to fix her car, with worries about falling behind on rent. She has looked into the option of using public transportation, but there is not a bus line near that is open during her work hours (in the AM). We are asking for any funds to support with the cost of the new water pump and cost of service. Any amount towards the need will help! Thank you so much for considering donating to this need.Submitted by: Scott County | Prior Lake | No | 1768608000 | Closed - Not Filled | |

| Help Now | Young family needs stackable washer and dryer in their townhouseA young family is in need of a standard size stackable washer and dryer. The mom has struggled with mental health issues and has been victorious in attaining sobriety while raising her very energetic eight-year-old son with limited income. She has lost a job due to her mental health issues. She decided to reach out to her son's father who agreed to become her caregiver and support her and their son. He works full-time and can only help out in the evenings and weekends. She has no transportation. She has applied for assistance through the county but haven't been approved for any financial assistance. They really need to have their own washer and dryer to save money by not having to go to a commercial laundromat. This will also save time that is spent at this location away from their home. She has found used machines on Market Place for as low as $200.00 in the past but weren't able to secure the funds quick enough before it was sold to another buyer. If someone has usable machines to donate, that would be great. If generous donors would be able to contribute any amount of money, that would be awesome. Any amount will quickly add up to remedy this request. Your kindness is appreciated.Submitted by: CAP (Scott-Carver-Dakota) | All Locations | No | 1764460800 | Closed - Not Filled |
