Having a baby can be overwhelming for any new mom and her family. Launched in 2019, the Baby Bundles initiative provides carefully packaged bundles for new moms who need additional support with resources and information.
Each Baby Bundle includes baby necessities such as diapers, wipes, bottles, books and more, including a packet of information on local services and caring for a newborn. Women United collaborates with local healthcare agencies to distribute the Baby Bundles throughout the year.
Collection Drives
Each year, "community baby showers” are held at area businesses and among Women United members and supporters to collect donations for Baby Bundles. Women United members and their children gather later in the year to package bundles for distribution to partner agencies.
Drives are now underway! You can drop items off at any of the following businesses or by ordering right from our Amazon, Target, or Walmart wish lists!
