Recipient story
Indigenous couple caring for their two-year-old son with complex health needs
First Nations Support
GIVIT
An Indigenous couple and their two-year-old son—is in urgent need of community support as they rebuild their lives after experiencing homelessness for three years. They have recently secured stable housing, marking a critical step forward. However, they continue to face significant challenges.
Their young son was born extremely premature at just 26 weeks and lives with complex health needs, particularly affecting his eyes and kidneys. His care requires frequent medical attention, making it difficult for either parent to secure consistent employment.
The father is actively seeking work, determined to provide for his family, while the mother is focused on improving her English literacy skills so she can better support her son and navigate daily life. Currently, neither parent is employed, and the family is struggling to meet their basic needs.
Donations would directly help this resilient family cover essential expenses.
