We no longer accept used baby clothes, maternity clothes, books, or stuffed animals. We are thankful for your gifts and can provide a tax receipt upon request.
Fill Up a Diaper Bag
Collect baby items to fill up a diaper bag for a client. You can do this at church or request items for your birthday! It’s easy, just buy a nice diaper bag and ask people to provide the following new items to fill it up (all items size 0-3 months):
- 3 onesies
- 3 sleepers
- 2 receiving blankets
- 1 heavy baby blanket
- 36 diapers
- 1 small toy or pacifier
Please select gender neutral items for your diaper bags! Thank you so much!
Host a Baby Shower
Client at NOVA Pregnancy Center of Alexandria was surprised with a baby shower.
Organize a “baby shower” with your family, small group or church. Send out email invitations asking people to bring new baby clothes, diapers, wipes and other important items for our baby boutiques or a specific client we can select. Provide appetizers, colorful balloons and hand out SLM information cards that we can provide.
If you have a birthday or wedding coming up, instead of gifts, ask people to make a donation to SLM in your name through our supporter website.
