past daycare bill to move forward

I am working with a mom who has recently gone to treatment and after living a life of instability, addiction and job insecurity. Because of this, the child has an over-due daycare balance. Moving forward the mother has people, supports (treatment, social workers, county workers, daycare) and a plan to ensure that she maintains her sobriety while also being a positive presence for her daughter. In order for help with her sobriety and be a positive presence for her daughter, this mother relies on daycare. The daycare enjoys working with this family and is able to help with a portion of the bill, however to keep this child there, any part of the remaining balance we want to try and cover. Any help towards this request would go to the daycare towards this child's balance.

4 year old girl headed to foster care needs new things

A family in Shakopee is taking in a 4 year old girl whose mom has made the choice to go to a year long treatment program to heal from a life of a drug addiction. Unfortunately, the home the 4 year old is coming from had meth in it and the foster family would like to get the little girl all new clothing, shoes, bedding and toys since meth sticks to everything. We helped the family make a Target registry of some stuff for the little girl to make it easy to help support them. The family is also requesting gift cards to Target or Kohls to help with groceries, spring/summer clothes and all other things that may come up. https://www.target.com/gift-registry/gift/fostergirlnewstart

Water Heater

Dear Fish Network, I am writing to you today because I am a case manager who works with a young 18 year old man in Jordan Minnesota. This young man just graduated from high school and is now attending Normdale community college. He was able to get this far due to the support of his mother and his five siblings. This young man’s father is also supportive but just had a stroke a few months back, so is out of work to attend physical and occupational therapy. My client fully relies on his whole family for support which is why he is still living at home and they help care for his needs. They support him because he was born with a very rare condition called Vacteryl Syndrome and Ventricular septal Defect. The family now needs support because there water heater is broken and needs to be to be replaced. They had plumber come out and it just needs to be replaced. In order to replace this 50 gallon water heater itself coast $2,400.00. Then the vent or piping on top is older and can cause carbon monoxide so they are requiring everyone to replace them will be an additional $450. This is a very big cost for this family of 8 to cover. Any finical support you could provide to this would be greatly appreciated! I know this is a big request but there are not a lot of programs that will help cover things like water heaters / venting. Thank you so much for your time and consideration.
