IT'S SHOUT-OUT TIME!!! 🎉
Unfortunately, my (Admin Nikki's) phone ran out of storage and cleared the photo 📸 I had taken of all the Marvel/Star Wars/Lego items for our teen boy 👦 in the DMH home 🏡 that came in, and I delivered it all to the case worker 😇 on Thursday before it got deleted 😒. Anyway, he is all set to celebrate his birthday 🎁 and summer thanks to JG and A LOT of anonymous donors! YOU GUYS ROCK!! 🥰

Happy Tuesday! ☀️
We have a family reunified!!!! 🥰
This Mom 👩‍👦 has worked very hard to get her kids home 🏠, and we received a request for a vacuum and a washer/dryer set for her. There's a pretty good deal on this vacuum ⬇️ and we are communicating with someone on Marketplace about the washer/dryer 🧺 If you'd like to help make these request happen, either venmo 💲 (reminder: only one "s" on families- as the spoofed account has 2) or see the link 👇
THANKS IN ADVANCE!!

UPDATE! Still need some help on this request, friends!!

Happy weekend, friends!!! 🌞

After we did such a fantastic job 💪 helping to deliver some little birthday 🎂 wishes to our Pokémon kiddo, the case worker 😇 reached out about another youth 🧑 he has on his caseload. He is also in a DMH home 🏡 and has a birthday 🎂 over the summer. The worker 😇 is looking to provide him some gifts 🎁 that will also keep his hands 👐 busy!
Can we help?!?! 🙏

Hi friends!!! 👋
It's been while since we had a request that another agency couldn't fill, but today we have a fun one!
We have a soon to be 15 year old 👨‍🦰 in a Dept. of Mental Health home that has bonded with his new caseworker 😇 over their love of Pokémon! We thought it would be fun to gift him some cool 😎 stuff for his birthday 🎂. Any helpers out there? 🥳

LAST UPDATE!!! In just a little over 48 hours, y'all cleared his list! THANK YOU!!! 💪

UPDATE!!! Only 7 items left on his list, all under $25!!!

GUESS WHAT, Y'ALL?!?!?! 😁
We have a youth transitioning into his own place soon!!! 🤩
Let's talk about this young man 🙋 for a minute...
This youth was adopted from an overseas orphanage when he was 4 years old. Unfortunately, his parents turned him over to the State due to behaviors he had exhibited 😢, in early 2018, and he has remained in the foster care system since.
In 2024, his amazing CASA team 😇 did some research 🗂 and found that due to some adoption paperwork errors 🚫, he was actually not a legal citizen 😲! So, he got to work! While finishing up high school ✔️, he was busting behind to study for his citizenship test 📚. In September of 2025, he passed with flying colors 🤓 and took his oath to become a US citizen 🥳!
This young man has come so far, and even with bumps in the road, has learned how to be a responsible member of society 🫡! We have no doubt he will go far in life, so let's help give him a good start to adulthood!!! 🙏🥰

Good morning, friends!! 🌄

We have been on the hunt for a small kitchen table with 4 chairs 🪑 and a dishwasher 🍽🌀 for a single mom and kids 👩‍👦, for a few weeks now, with no luck on Marketplace 👎. If you, or any of your friends, might have one available, please let us know! OR, if you happen to be in a resale shop and see either item, please message us 📧!
Thank you!!

OH HAPPY DAY!!!! 😁
Update on our family in need of the bed and teen aging out!
I (Admin Nikki) was able to deliver the bed frame 🛏 to Owensville last week, and yesterday the teen's 🙍‍♀️ worker 😇 gave her our card 💳 of well wishes, as she had her final court hearing 🧑‍⚖️!
(We haven't yet secured a mattress and box springs, but are still working on it).
In the last few weeks, we were also able to help connect a family (working with CASA) a washer 🫧 and dryer 🧺 set and a microwave 🔥, and a Mom working with Children’s Division a tank of gas ⛽️!
SHOUT-OUTS 🎉 to donors Dawnette W and Bonita H, as well as for helping make these wishes come true!!! 🥰
