It’s that time again! Welcome to the 2nd Annual Operation Newborn! 👶🏻 We are local to the Temecula area and work to support our local military personnel at Camp Pendleton.
We strive to provide base and community resources to support expecting parents. So many of the new moms and dads are far from family who would typically throw a shower for the family. Operation Newborn will step in to “shower“ these new parents with gifts to ease the financial burden of new parenthood.
Participants are eligible if they are currently expecting. The regiment at Camp Pendleton has about 2000 personnel, and the need is great as there is an average of 35 to 40 babies born every year.
We are seeking donations to provide for these families through the end of April 2022. Items needed are:
Diapers
Wipes
Onesies
Pacifiers
Toys
Bottles
Baskets/Bins
Wash/Burp Cloths
Bibs
Receiving Blankets
Clothing (newborn up to 12 months)
Shoes (newborn up to 12 months)
We’re also looking for big ticket items to be raffled off:
Car Seats
Strollers
Pack n Play
Diaper Genie
Bathtubs
Bedding
In addition to donations, I’m also in need of volunteers to help with various aspects of the event.
Donations will be accepted through April 2022. We will hold a gathering at a private estate in Fallbrook on Friday, May 6th for all the new families.
Thank you for your interest and your donations. Help support those who support our country.
