NOVEMBER NEWSLETTER 2024

We’ve been busy, and we’re sure you have been too! We would like to extend an especially warm welcome to all our new subscribers. We are so grateful to have crossed paths with you and we pray you stick around to see all the amazing things we are doing in the community.

Diaper Drive Success

Thank you to all our donors and volunteers who worked to make our first diaper drive a HUGE community success! We had over 100 registered applicants and were able to help so many of these families alleviate the cost of diapers/pull-ups…even if it was just for a week or 2. As a mom, any little thing helps, and we pray we were able to do just that.

Free Shoes

If you are the mother of a baby boy (or know someone who is), this may be an opportunity for you. All shoes are free and are available for pickup in Hammond and surrounding areas ONLY. If you want us to ship them, we only ask that you cover the $5 shipping fee. Be sure to follow us on Facebook for more clean-outs soon.

Help a Mommy Out

It was through our Diaper Drive that we met Brandy, a single mother of 2. Brandy was more than grateful to receive her diapers and share with us the tragic loss of her beautiful mother. Unfortunately, her mother didn’t have a will, so Brandy is currently trying to obtain her home and other sentimental items. She is also working diligently to get custody of her 16-year-old son.

This is why our organization exists…to help mothers when they’re in need. Any contribution towards helping Brandy and her children navigate this difficult time will mean so much to us and her. please consider showing your support by donating to her GoFundMe here or by sharing it with someone who may. We appreciate you!

Be The Change: If you are someone who believes in providing resources for young, pregnant, and incarcerated mothers, perhaps you would like to become a sustaining donor! By donating any amount biweekly, monthly, quarterly, or annually you help us continue our mission.
