Grocery/Food Assistance
A local single mother with children is currently experiencing challenges related to a medical condition that prevents her from driving. At times, her condition also makes it difficult for her to leave home to purchase groceries, meals, and other necessities for her family.
We are seeking gift cards to help the family access groceries and meal delivery during times when the mother’s medical condition makes these everyday tasks especially difficult.
Gift cards for DoorDash, Instacart, Walmart, Target, or grocery stores with delivery options would be especially helpful and would allow the mother the flexibility to order what her family needs when she is unable to get out.
The family’s greatest need right now is having a reliable way to access food and essential household items without transportation becoming an additional barrier.
Any amount would make a meaningful difference in helping this mother continue to care for her family during a challenging time. Please mark the gift cards with School #7.
Thank you for considering supporting this family!

Financial Assistance - After-School Basketball Fee
Financial assistance is requested to support a student with participation in an after-school basketball program. The total need is $160 for two months of basketball programming.
This assistance would provide the student with the opportunity to participate in an extracurricular activity they are excited about while encouraging positive social interaction, teamwork, and personal growth. It would also help ease the financial burden on the caregiver and provide a much-needed reprieve, knowing the student is safely engaged in a positive and enriching after-school activity.
Food Assistance
A local family is in need of approximately two weeks of food assistance to help make sure they have enough groceries at home. Donations can be provided through grocery store gift cards or pre-selected food items (we will email you with dietary needs if you choose to do this). Grocery store gift cards are preferred, as they allow the family to choose foods that best fit their needs and preferences.
Any support would be greatly appreciated and would provide meaningful relief for this family during a time of need.
