There were 3,476 visits to ABC in 2022, which is a 50% increase from 2021, in great part due to our new location and its proximity to our Journey Beside Mothers program. We are asking for your help by hosting a baby shower or challenging your co-workers to bring baby items into work. Many businesses, civic groups, and church groups have participated, helping thousands of families thrive through the years.
PLAN A BABY SHOWER
Bring a basket into your business, church, or social gathering to collect NEW baby items. Items can be brought to Associated Churches. Have any questions about having a baby shower contact the Director of A Baby's Closet Betsy Henderson at 260-745-7959 or by email betsy@associatedchurches.org.
