VOICES THAT MATTER- VIRTUAL VOLUNTEER
A 30‑minute virtual volunteer opportunity where you share what genuinely resonated with you about our mission—in your own words, on your own terms.
This opportunity invites volunteers to lend their authentic voice. Rather than promoting or reposting content, you’ll reflect on what you noticed, learned, or connected with while exploring our stories and mission.
Your reflection—shared on social media or as a Google review—helps future supporters see the mission through real people, not polished messaging.
It’s flexible, low‑pressure, and rooted in honesty. Start here.
WELCOME BABY
Host a Community Baby Shower: Did you know that diapers, wipes, and formula cost an average of $250/month? You can help a family make ends meet by hosting a community baby shower. A community baby shower is just that - baby gifts & supplies donated from the community and then given back to those in need in our community. Our Welcome Baby program ensures that every parent who enrolls with a newborn receives a diaper bag filled with newborn commodities.
- You can organize the shower to fit your schedule, and bring donations to our office during business hours.
- View the list of most needed items in our community. *Remember: (1) every donation, no matter the size, makes a huge difference. These parents are so grateful for the items they receive each month. (2) We ask for all new items. Parents and guardians have a hard enough time asking for help when they have a new baby, and we want those in our community to feel valued and respected, no matter what.
