Serving Vulnerable Infants
This month, as we carefully pack away baby Jesus and our Nativity scenes for another year, we are reminded of the many low-income families with infants who need our help. These families fall between the cracks, with income too high to be eligible for assistance programs, yet too low to afford their monthly bills. Baby Basics was started 15 years ago by West Siders to help these families by providing them with formula, diapers, and other support on a regular basis. Since its founding, the program has grown considerably; this year alone we helped over 100 babies. The program is now under the auspices of Children’s Aid and Family Services, but many West Siders are still involved. Help is always needed: packing products and distributing them to the families, helping with the annual fundraising event, or organizing a diaper and formula drive at your place of work, through organizations such as the Boy and Girl Scouts or school service clubs. Your help will directly affect the lives of children and families in our community. For information, call Donna Kennedy at Baby Basics, 201-261-2800.
