About Us
From Harvest House:
At the Baby & Children's Ministry mothers, fathers, grandmothers, and other caregivers "shop" free of charge for items their children need. The Baby & Children's Ministry supports more than 200 community service agencies who send children living in poverty to our ministry each year for clothing, safe cribs, car seats, strollers, educational toys, books, pajamas, etc. Most of the items given away have been donated through private individuals, clothing drives, "baby showers," and scouting projects.
WHY ARE WE HOLDING A BABY SHOWER?
September is a tough month at Harvest House’s Baby and Children’s Ministry, supplies are low and demand increases.
The lack of diapers is a big problem often associated with major family problems:
Babies suffer from higher-than- average infections.
They have trouble qualifying for preschool programs because they cannot supply sufficient diapers.
Families living near the federal poverty level must spend 10% to 15% of their GROSS income to buy enough diapers. This creates the tough choice of paying bills or buying baby supplies.
2024 PROGRAM NEEDS:
Diapers (size 2.3.4 or 5)
Baby bottles
Wipes
Socks (especially for children 3+)
Baby lotion, diaper ointment and shampoo
Towels and washcloths (new only)
New or used clothing for babies and children up to 14 years of age
Donations toward the purchase of portable baby cribs
