Lakota Bridges

Student is new to Lakota this year and struggling to make friends. Mother is hoping getting student involved in Boys ang Girls Club will help her make friends and foster connections. Mother is also interested as this would give the student something to do after school while mother works. Due to the student's age and needs, she is unable to be home alone, which has prevented mom from being able to work as many hours as she needs to. 

A single working mom is struggling to supply her children with diapers. She needs size 5 and 7 and wipes. 

Due to a recent car accident involving a student and their family, two family members who were previously working are unable to work due to recovery. With multiple follow up appointments, it is making it hard for all family members to attend work. We have worked with the family to help fill their other needs. However, they are afraid that due to missing two incomes they are not going to be able to make their rent this month.

A Lakota family would like to volunteer at their children's school but met a barrier when they learned about the fees necessary for them to be cleared with the background check in order to volunteer. The family would greatly appreciate assistance with the fee to allow them to support and be more involved at their child's school.

A 9 year old boy is having medical complications and his guardian is a single dad trying to navigate through it. With multiple trips back and fourth to Children's main campus and dad missing work the family could use some assistance. Gift cards would be much appreciated such as Kroger Cards, Gas Cards, local restaurants like McDonalds, Chick Fila, Subway, Chipotle. Thank you. 

Family recently moved to the area after losing their previous residence to a fire. Student is new to the district and struggling to make friends and connections in his new school. Staff and family think Boys and Girls Club would be a great option to help foster connections in his new community.
