Fostering 6 kids

Tragically, we came to be the only option for my nieces and nephews. The "system" was going to split them into 6 different foster and "residential" homes. We were the only ones who could take the kids and keep them together. We had been foster parents before, so we were a good fit. We added 6 to our three biological kids. The kids came to us with the clothes on their backs (four didn't even have underwear.) If it weren't COVID-19, we would be able to go to local charities for clothing for them, but they are closed. We are in need of a clean new full size and twin size mattress, a couple of dressers, various baby items. We have a 16 year old girl, 14 year girl, 10 year old girl, 8 year old boy, 4 year old girl, and 17 month old boy. We appreciate all the help we can get! Thank you to those who have already stepped up to help. Couldn't do it without you! This will get us a start while government assistance takes 8-12 weeks to process. Clothing for 6 children = $30 x 6 x 7 days Tripling our food budget for 12 weeks. New Beds & Bedding $330 each Professional delousing treatments $100 each
