From social worker:

I am working with a single mom with 2 kids with autism and all 3 with asthma living in a basement with a lot of needs. One of them is special clothes. I hope you can help. They live in Framingham.

Woman size G or XG shoe size 10 (winter shoes and a sneaker)
Kids 6 yo and 10 yo both wear size 12-14yo. They need pants and shorts with elastic easy to go to the toilet (due to their condition no jeans, no zipper or bottoms)
Shoes for winter, tennis, versatile slip-on slide sandals sizes 3Y and 5Y

If you know someone who may have an air purifier and dehumidifier to donate would be great too."
Let's see what we can do to help this family!!

H2H has connections to the families in hotels and shelters. Top requests:
Winter gear (coats, boots, hats, gloves)
Underwear & Socks (Inc. Bras)
Warm clothing in general
Thank you & please spread the word!

JUST IN: A request for women's clothes in size 7/8 and size medium. If you can help this woman (these are also sizes I've seen at a few shelters) she will be very happy! Thank you and please...spread the word!

Hard to believe summer is more than half-way through! With help of family and friends, H2H was able to provide 2 young men with *new* back to school clothing and supplies. These items are in need to so please consider our area families in need. Thank you!

Thank you so much Rebecca W. For your very generous donation of diapers, wipes, and laundry detergent!! Happy families in hotels and a shelter are grateful.... thanks to your kindness!

The influx of Haitian refugees has area social service organizations scrambling. As a housing worker supporting those in shelters in the city of Framingham, I witness every day the plight of those from Haiti as well as countless others. The most pressing needs are: Laundry detergent, toiletries, diapers and pull-ups, wipes, towels, bedding (inc. new pillows), and infant/toddler needs. If you are able to help: please reply here. PM, or call 508-333-5275. Thank you! Merci beaucoup!

It's play time! Thank you Lauren B for your generous donation of good-as-new toys for local homeless children. As a case worker back in the field, I'm once again seeing great hands the need for items such as clothing, toys, towels... the list goes on. Thank you!!

Thank you Yolanda Greaves for helping so many men with men's clothes! They were promptly delivered to a men's shelter in Marlboro. Great stuff!

From Framingham social worker: I was wondering if you had any umbrella or front facing strollers for a family I'm working with? They have an almost 1 year old still in a bucket seat stroller and she's miserable facing inwards so hoping being able to face outwards will make her more content when mom needs to walk with her to get places!

I also have a family in need of a small crib or a pack n play with a bassinet feature for their 3 month old boy. Please reply if you can and if you can't..please.. spread the word! Thank you!

Happy Mother's Day!! 12 gift bags of personal care items were assembled and delivered to a 12 resident women's recovery home today :) Thank you supporters!

Happy !! So many of the people who support us are and so many of those we serve are moms ... what a blessing! Enjoy your special day!
