Community in Action: Assembling Care Kits for Moms 👶🎒🤝
Today APA Family Support Services joined a fantastic corporate volunteer event to assemble care kits for moms. Each kit includes diapers 🍼, hygiene items 🧴🧼, wet wipes 🧻, and a practical backpack 🎒—small essentials that make a big difference. The employees’ enthusiasm was contagious 🙌; they were thrilled to learn how these supplies help parents who are struggling to afford diapers and other basics for their babies.
We’re especially grateful 💙 for our long-standing partnership—over a decade—with Help a Mother Out 🤝, which powers our diaper distribution and ensures families get what they need, when they need it.
A recent example: a 20-year-old single mom caring for her 8‑month‑old daughter has been moving between temporary places while waiting for stable housing 🏠. With postpartum depression and tight finances, even diapers felt out of reach. Through our counseling, basic-needs support, and free diapers 🎁, she found immediate relief from financial pressure and could focus on bonding with her baby 👩👧. These kits—and partners like Help a Mother Out—help turn worry into hope 🌟.
