Help Now	Family w/ 6 Children in Need I’m a case manager who works with a 66-year-old woman in Shakopee who has type 2 diabetes and coronary artery disease. She has recently been having increasingly debilitating health issues and instability. This woman lives with her daughter and her daughter’s 6 grandchildren. Her daughter recently had to quit her full-time job to provide the necessary care and supervision for my client, which has caused financial strain on the family. This has made it difficult for them to afford their rent and continue to have food on the table. Both my client and her daughter do not understand or speak much English and their primary language is Cambodian. Her and her family need support at this time of hardship, given the daughter’s inability to work and provide financial support for her family. They are looking for financial help through gift cards to help face the current financial strain they are facing. Please consider donating gift cards to any Cambodian grocery store near Savage/Shakopee, Target, Wal-Mart, Sam’s Club, or Holiday gas station in $20 increments to help them continue to afford rent and cost of living during this difficult time.

This young man’s father is also supportive, but had a stroke a few months ago and is out of work at this time. His family now needs support because their water heater is broken and needs to be replaced. This is a very big cost for this family of 8 to cover. They are looking for financial help through gift cards to help offset the cost of paying for this.
