Fall is in full swing, and October will be a busy and exciting month for our club!
Weekly Collection for the Baby Closet
We continue our weekly collection for the Baby Closet—a wonderful opportunity to support families in need right here in our community. Please consider bringing items to our weekly meetings.
If you would prefer to make a monetary donation, you may give it to Michele or Chuck, and we will gladly do the shopping on your behalf.
Items Needed:
Baby Formula: Nutramigen and Gentlease (Enfamil – lavender can)
Affordable Alternative: Parent’s Choice Gentle Infant Formula Powder with Iron (lavender label, Walmart brand)
Toiletries: Baby wipes, Desitin, Baby shampoo, Baby body wash
Diapers: Sizes 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6
Clothing (Fall/Winter): Sizes 2T, 3T, 4T, 5T, 6, and 6X
Together, we can make a real difference for local families and ensure that babies in our community have what they need.
