Soroptimist – Community Baby Shower
May 1 - May 31
Free
From May 1 to May 31, Soroptimist International of Bend is holding the 19th Annual “Community Baby Shower” donation event. The club is asking for community donations of new or gently used baby items – such as clothing, blankets (crocheted or knitted, baby quilts); crocheted sweaters, hats, booties, baby socks, crib sheets. Sizes from newborn up to at least 12 months of age are appreciated.
Note: We cannot accept used car seats.
Donations will be distributed throughout the Tri-County area by the Oregon Department of Human Services to families in need and foster families who take in an infant or toddler on short notice. Being able to access these items helps alleviate financial burdens for families in our community, and bring comfort to the infants and toddlers in their care.
Collection baskets are placed citywide at supporting businesses, making it easy to participate. Donation drop-off locations with our community partners are listed below.
With the help of our generous community, Soroptimist International of Bend would like to thank our community in advance for making sure our smallest community members know that the people of Bend sincerely care for their well-being.
