Urgent: Secure Safe Housing for a Family
Donation protected
I created this GoFundMe Strictly to help get a family I met yesterday off of the streets.
Yesterday I witnessed an entire homeless camp in my city and to my surprise, once I took them food last night and spoke with them, I discovered it was a grandfather, his daughter, and his granddaughter.
Where they are currently staying is in a flood prone area. We are currently facing flooding threats this weekend here in Arkansas (4-6 inches by Friday). Our shelters stay full in this city, they have pets as well to which they wouldn't be able to take to a shelter.
My concern is that they do not have enough time to seek out other options with the impending weather, food stamps take sometimes up to 30 days to process, and unfortunately, my city doesn't do enough for the homeless population here.
My plan is that if we can raise enough money we could possibly put them into a rental home. This $5k goal could get them set up in a new home, pay a months worth of bills and more, and give them a little wiggle room to get back on their feet. Sometimes that's all we need. If you can help I would appreciate it and if you cannot, please pray that God moves this mountain for this family.
