We had generous donations in December towards our Infant program, from CWL St. Micheals, St. Benedicts and St. Joseph’s. We are grateful for this need being filled, as there seems to have been a baby boom in Sarnia recently.
We provide expecting families with an Infant gift bag near their due date, all items are brand new; some are handmade with love. These donations help to purchase new infant clothes, feeding products, and infant hygiene products as well as larger size diapers and formula.
We had a sweet newborn come to visit us before the holidays, her Mom’s first Food bank visit after her birth, she made a point to reach out to Valerie (Infant Program Coordinator) with sheer gratitude and excitement to introduce her newest addition. This Mom is one of many families we have had the joy of celebrating with.
Thank you to our donors, and a very big thank you to Valerie our dedicated coordinator, all have made it possible to extend a sweet gesture to welcome new bundles of joy.
