Aprils Family of the Month
Our April family was a mom and dad expecting a baby girl in May. It was like Christmas on the front porch for the past 3 weeks....and soon became Babies R Us in the living room as you shared everything a new mom could possibly need for a little girl! People went on shopping sprees in the infant department and purchase new baby clothing, diapers, lotions and potions and dropped them off to share. A beautiful gently used crib, glider, changing table, and basinett. A car seat, stroller, baby swing, mobile, bumpers, sheets, blankets, bibs, monitors, baby bottle, pack n play, kicking mat, play mat, exersaucer....the list goes on and on!
The family and caseworker were overwhelmed. The caseworker shared that it was the most incredible Baby Shower ever! She also shared "this is the most deserving couple ever...."
Those who emailed with any duplicate baby supplies decided to share their donations with a 2nd mom who was also expecting in May....so 2 families ended up being helped due to the amazing generosity of so many...
Aprils Project- Drive for the Homeless Shelters
Thanks to the amazing volunteers who shared two hours of time and staffed the Pewaukee Wal-Mart, and the Delafield Sentry on an incredibly cold and rainy Saturday! The 25 volunteers did an amazing job! 6 cars full of food and toiletries were collected along with $450.00 in cash donations, all of which were shared with the Hebron House Homeless Shelters. Individuals, families, teens, young children and their parents all pitched in passing out lists of most needed food and toiletries to customers as they entered....and collecting their bags full of donations as they left! You are AMAZING....
