Thank you to the more than 80 companies, community organizations and individuals that generously volunteered their time and resources to help homeless mothers and their children. Click here to see more details. Your support in 2010 helped us collect:
- 102,229 diapers
- 157,093 baby wipes
- 9,413 jars of baby food, cereal, finger food, etc.
- 4,434 (hygiene items, strollers, car seats, blankets etc.)
2010 grand total is 273,169!!!! This is an 88% increase from the 2009 totals!!! Since 2008 we've collected 536,379 "essential" baby items and distributed these much needed donations to hundreds of homeless mothers and their infants in Orange County.
Unfortunately the needs continue to grow. Families are still the fasting growing segment of the homeless population. Our goal for 2011 is "500,000"
Please save the dates and help us reach (and even surpass) our goal.
