Project #46938: Just Need a Helping Hand
Hello, my name is Kait my family and I attend Bridgetown. I am reaching out today because I felt nudged to and believe, if nothing else, Bridgetown can pray for us! I’m a traveling healthcare worker and after 3 years of traveling the country with my family we have decided to settle down here in Oregon. When we decided to travel for the extra income, we sold everything we owned to have enough money to leave. We’ve rented furnished housing since, and are now settling in an unfurnished home. We don’t even own a fork. I am the soul provider of a family of 5 and I have just recently taken my dad in. I’m feeling overwhelmed with the idea of not being able to provide essentials for my family. I am asking for prayer warriors and also, if it’s a possibility to get the word to the Bridgetown community that we are in need of donations. Cups, plates, towels anything. Writing this email asking for help is actually the last thing I want to do, but I know sometimes God provides through others. Even if that is prayer for strength. Thank you Kait

Project #48121: Moving Services
My son and I live in an apartment that we moved into a few years ago. We had experienced homelessness for a short time before hand but due to medical needs we were able to get help with housing. Since then I have not been able to bring my things to the new house from a storage unit. There are boxes and then maybe some small light furniture I would like to move but have no vehicle. My son is more than willing to help with moving and loading. In fact it would be great to have either myself and/or my son with the volunteer to help pick the correct items. I believe that all the items we would need would fit in 1 to 2 pickup truck loads. We do not have a specific timeline for when I need this by as I have been living without these items for sometime, but sooner would be much appreciated as they hold a lot of personal value and will help make my house a home.

Project #47513: Yard Work
This widowed and disabled senior neighbor is recently out of the hospital. She is looking for help getting some things behind her garage removed and taken to the dump (a longer lightweight pipe and some yard tools. She said you can take it to the dump or keep any of it (yard stuff still good). She does not drive so can not do this herself. She tried to get a company to come out to do it, and they wanted to charge her $400 without even looking at what she had, which she does not have. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Project #46766: Just Need a Helping Hand
Hi neighbors, My name is Chantel, and my husband and I are reaching out because our family is going through one of the hardest seasons We are a family with young children ages 4 and 3, and I’m currently pregnant with our baby girl due this fall. Due to financial hardship and housing issues, we’ve lost a lot of our stability and are having to move from the Portland area back to Southern Oregon by the end of the month. My husband serves in the Army Reserve, and we’ve been doing everything we can to get back on our feet, but right now we’re overwhelmed. The biggest challenges we’re facing are: * Finding or securing a moving truck we can afford * Help with moving expenses or gas * Extra hands to help load or unload * Packing supplies like boxes or totes * Any resources for military families, housing, or emergency assistance We’ve exhausted many of the resources we knew about and are trying not to lose hope. With two little kids who don’t fully understand what’s happening and another baby on the way, this transition has been emotionally and financially exhausting. If anyone has advice, knows of any resources or is able to help in any way, we would be so grateful. Also, we live on a third floor. Moving with all our kids will be so hard with our present living situation. So many of our neighbors are leaving also because of the financial strain of our apartment. Thank you for taking the time to read this. Even sharing this post or sending words of encouragement means a lot to our family right now. — Chantel & Family ❤️

Project #45335: Moving Services
Hello. I have a one year lease in Portland that started on March 1st 2026 and I've already paid the deposit and rent for my Portland apartment. My only issue is that I'm trying to get to Portland from Albany OR. I'm contacting as many places that I can, hoping someone will know the solution. I'm in a pickle because Im disabled and a domestic violence victim with a restraining order. I've already called all of the services in Linn county and they were unable to help, so I'm taking a try at Multnomah. I have a studio apartment and I'm moving to a micro studio apartment in Portland. I contacted Allied vans for a moving quote and they weren't able to give me a quote because my apartment is way under 2000 pounds. They estimated all of my items together was barely 600 pounds. One flight of concrete stairs at my apartment in Albany and 3 flights of indoor carpeted stairs in my apartment in Portland. I live next to a parking lot. My heaviest items are my portable air conditioner, end table and mattress. I have a mattress bag with straps for the mattress. I can't drive because of my disability. If anyone knows anyone who can help. I would appreciate it. I just want my stuff from Albany to Portland before April 4th. I can do any date between March 10th and April 4th. I just want my stuff in my apartment in Portland, so I can relax. Everything is already packed, zip tied and I have 4 latch straps and shrink wrap. I would kindly appreciate any help or advice to help move me to safety. Thank you. I contacted Bradley Angle and a kind woman is setting up my case for when I make to Portland.

Project #43945: Plumbing
My wife and I just moved into a new condo and it appears that the garbage disposal was not installed just right. It’s a simple fix but I am disabled and cannot do it without the help of another able body person. Would take all of five minutes. The drain leaks at the top of unit under sink because of this.
