Help a family stay housed and not hungry

Donation protected
Hello, we are a family of many but those in need are here in this picture. We don’t expect to make the whole goal amount of money, but we are hoping and praying we don’t end up homeless again or hungry again. We where worried about how we would stay housed in late summer, but it seems our ongoing support stops after February and we might end up in a dire situation.

At first everything was finally good and looking up, but unfortunately only one of us works and not enough to support everyone else. Mom Is not working due to health reasons and is applying for SSI. Tehanna is not working due to health issues and is applying for SDI. Kaylahni just started working more but only enough to lightly support her needs also with health issues. Daniel is just newly of age to start working but needs to focus on graduating high school. Chris is a a preteen occupied with video games and friends.

We find ways to get food donations, but they usually come already spoiled/rotten or are unhealthy (bags of rice, potatoes and pasta). We are trying to find ways to get healthier foods especially with our health issues. But most importantly we want to stay off the streets and in warmth!

unfortunately we are all struggling to stay afloat and support each other. Even if we are all in better conditions soon, the goal would be to have Tehanna and Kaylahni find a way to fend for themselves in late summer without homelessness as well. If rent can get paid, the two younger kids and mom will continue to have a place to stay for the rest of the year and maybe more.
