As the school year begins, many families in our community are working hard to provide stability for their children but are struggling to cover the costs of clothing, supplies, and essentials. This week’s Friday’s Featured Need focuses on four families who could use extra support to ensure their kids start the year feeling prepared and confident.
1️⃣ A Single Mom with Two Middle Schoolers
Her children need new clothing and basic school supplies. The oldest also needs a calculator, protractor, and additional items for math class. Gift cards to Target or Walgreens would be especially helpful since she lives nearby.
💲 Requested: $300
