Just one week ago, a child came into kinship care with little notice. A family stepped up immediately and opened their home so this child would not have to enter foster care with strangers. They did not hesitate. They said yes because they wanted this child to stay with people they know and trust. Like many kinship families, this placement happened fast. The caregivers are doing everything they can to keep life stable while continuing to work and provide for their household. In order to do that, the child needs full time daycare. The cost is $400/ per week. Right now, this expense is more than the family can manage on their own during this sudden transition. This family is asking for any level of support to help cover daycare costs so they can continue working and keep this child safely in their care. Even a small contribution can make a real difference. Your support helps keep a child in a loving family setting during a very uncertain time. Thank you for helping this family show this child they are not alone.

The family has become homeless within the last few months due to the father losing his job and the family being unable to afford rent. The family has been living in a camper for the last several months due to this. There is a spot in the camper floor that is sinking in, so the family has been having to put things over the spot to prevent it fully breaking through. Therefore, we would like assistance with getting a handyman to help fix the area or help with purchasing supplies for the family to attempt fixing it themselves. The family could also benefit from gas cards or gift card for food until they can get back on their feet. The family is working very hard, but they just need a little support.

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.

Hello! I am working with a single mother and her children who are facing eviction/homelessness. My client is requesting assistance in paying for her water bill and fees totaling $649.04. She will be receiving section 8 and social security benefits so she will be able to make future payments but does not have the funding to pay this amount. We have attempted to contact other organizations as well, but none are able to assist at this time. Any help is immensely appreciated!
