| Help Now | Help mom see her teen on Broadway in NYCKiara made it to the Jimmy Awards in New York. Her expenses are paid, but in order for her mom and brother to see her perform they need help with the funds for flight and hotel. Flights for a one day trip for 2 are $800 total. Hotel for one night $275. Mom's employer has had some legal trouble so she has been out of work making it hard to afford this sudden expense. They only learned a few weeks before the trip that she was selected and also had expenses to buy Kiara the necessary luggage, clothing, makeup, shoes, etc. for her trip.Submitted by: ISD 191 Burnsville-Eagan-Savage | Burnsville | No | 1782259200 | Closed - Not Filled | |
| Help Now | Summer heat!I'm reaching out on behalf of a single mom who is facing an unexpected challenge. Last year, she purchased an air conditioning unit to help keep her home comfortable during the summer months. Unfortunately, that unit has stopped working and can no longer be repaired. As a single parent replacing the AC unit is a significant expense. The lack of air conditioning has become especially difficult as the heat can contribute to increased dysregulation and discomfort for the child, making it harder to maintain a calm and stable home environment. We are looking for $400 to help cover the cost of a replacement AC unit. Thank you for considering!Submitted by: Scott County | Savage | No | 06/30/2026 | Closed - Not Filled | |
| Help Now | single Father would benefit from money to afford insuranceI am working with a father who recently was given full custody of his daughter. Father has been working hard to save up money to find independent housing. He has stayed sober for two years and is also working hard to save up money to get his license back and get insurance for his vehicle. Father needs to pay his insurance for six months up front due to his history. As he plans for his and his daughter's future, he would benefit from having his license/vehicle back. His need is $5,000, however, any amount would be greatly appreciated as it would help him get a head start on getting his own housing.Submitted by: Scott County | Prior Lake | No | 1780963200 | Closed - Not Filled | |
| Help Now | Rent help for mom with baby in NICUAlpha Women's Center is working with a mom who has 12-day-old twins, one of whom is in the NICU. Mom had to leave her job due to medical complications during the pregnancy, and now is caring for the newborns and a 2-year-old while one baby is still in the hospital. She has fallen behind on rent but will be able to meet her expenses when she starts a new job as soon as she is physically able to in the next few weeks.
