<div dir="ltr">If you have an All America Bank branch near you, they will reimburse you for money spent on clothes, school supplies, hygiene supplies, and possible some food that you purchase for the children. you would need to call the bank and see who there contact person is for that program. I spent $500 earlier in the year to buy clothes and hygiene items for two students, and as soon as I turned the receipts into our bank branch here in Cache, they cut me a check for the full amount.<div><br></div><div><br><div><br></div><div>Becky Smith</div><div>Cache 5th-8th Grade Counselor<br><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Nov 9, 2016 at 11:30 AM, OSRHE EPAS PK-12 Counselor Discussion Board <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:counselors@lists.onenet.net" target="_blank">counselors@lists.onenet.net</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

<p class="MsoNormal">We have a family who needs assistance with everything. They have no vehicle and are on an extremely tight budget. The grandmother is raising 3 of her grandchildren, one who is a special needs child. The granddaughter is on a ventilator.
The grandmother is unable to read and write. Our program is unable to assist them because the grandmother does not have birth certificates or the Certificates of Degrees of Indian Blood for each child. Federal guidelines require us to have these for each
child we assist. We have personally made donations but we can only do so much. I am wondering in anyone knows of any programs which would help them get the children’s birth certificates, assist them in getting additional help for the special needs child and
provide transportation to and from the doctors and other places. This family is located here in the Oklahoma City area. I’d appreciate any word of any resources available.<u></u><u></u></p>
