2024 Layette Kit Donation
Beginning Sunday, May 5
For over 20 years, Sacred Heart Community Service has been offering layette kits to families who are either expecting a baby or have a newborn. The program began one day when a young father came into the Clothes Closet in a panic, in need of something to dress his baby in to leave the hospital. All that could be found for him that day was a couple of towels. A Sacred Heart staff member was inspired to reach out to her circle of friends to donate blankets and other items to welcome a newborn. Today, Sacred Heart provides these bags each month to help families give their newest member a warm welcome home.
Bethel’s 2023 donation
Bethel is once again holding a collection drive starting May 5. Donate one or more items as you feel able.
For each layette bag we need:
- diapers (newborn or size 1)
- wipes
- receiving blankets (pack of 3 or 4)
- 3 onesies
- 3 sleepers
- shampoo
- socks
- bottles
You may bring your donation to Bethel from May 5 through May 26. You may also ship directly to my home (let me know to expect a shipment), drop at my home, or I can pick up from your home. Let me know if you need help in any way.
Contact Mark Evashenk if you have any questions, I’m in the church directory.
