The Dealership is Giving One Week for the Foster Family to Raise the Downpayment

Critical
7 days left

Together, this family has fostered 22 children. They currently have 5 children under the age of three in car seats. Due to unforeseen life circumstances, they are in need of help. Their current vehicle is no longer road worthy. They are able to be approved for financing a new vehicle, but the trade-in value of their current car is upside down. They have most of the down payment they need, and can afford the monthly car loan payments, but need $2500 to offset the trade in before the dealership can approve them for financing. The full details can be seen on the Lackawanna County KeyFam Facebook account or on GoFundMe @ the link in this post. If you could help raise the funds needed, this family would greatly appreciate it.

Electric Bill Assistance

High
11 days left

💛 Community Support Request – Local Family in Need 💛 Our community has always shown up for one another in times of need, and today I am asking for that same compassion for a local family who could truly use some support. This household includes two children, ages 5 and 14, and one elderly woman. The mother has always worked hard, typically maintaining 40 hours per week, but due to recent layoffs her hours have been reduced to just 24 hours per week. She is currently waiting to hear whether partial unemployment will be approved. Unfortunately, the reduction in income has created a hardship. The family currently has an outstanding electric balance of $882. They have reached out to LIHEAP and the local assistance office, but at this time they are unable to receive help through those programs. As many of us know, winter electric bills can be overwhelming — and keeping the lights and heat on is essential, especially with children and an elderly family member in the home. If you feel led to help, donations of any amount would be deeply appreciated and will go directly toward the family’s electric bill. ✔ The account number has been provided to this writer so payments can be made directly on the family’s behalf. ✔ Donations can be sent via PayPal (Friends/Family) on behalf of this family. ✔ A receipt of payment can be provided upon request for transparency. If you would like to contribute or need additional information, please contact: Kimberly Brewer 📧 ourpuzzledlife@gmail.com 📱 814-227-9232 (call or text)

Security Deposit for Child and Father

Critical
Overdue

From Lancaster Children & Youth: "Due to circumstances out of his control, there is a hard working father in desperate need for his disabled child and himself. Mother died unexpectedly in August due to health complications. She leaves behind her partner and a seven year old son, diagnosed with significant disabilities. Father works as a janitor and often walks to and from work due to not having a vehicle. While trying to navigate this new chapter of their lives, they have received a notice to quit and must vacate their home as their landlord is selling the home. There is a rental on hold for father and son but we urgently need first month's rent and a security deposit. If the funds cannot be raised, father will lose his child due to the laws regarding homelessness. Father is able to maintain the monthly rental payment of $895 however he lacks the $1790 to solidify his tenancy. Father has lost his partner and son has lost his mother. Please, if you can find it in your hearts to help this family they would remain together, filled with gratitude. Life has been very difficult for them, the requested funds would be the gift that keeps on giving. Thank you in advance for your consideration!"
