DONATION DRIVES
At New Life Family Services, we serve thousands of women and men each year who are in need of baby items for their children. In 2024, we distributed more than 240,000 diapers through our parenting education program!
By hosting a Baby Item Drive for New Life, you are helping to make sure parents have the resources they need for their children to thrive.
How it works:
- Choose a timeframe to host a Baby Item Drive. We usually suggest anywhere from a week to a month!
- Reach out to Churches@NLFS.org to schedule your drive, learn if there are any specific items we are in great need of, and receive materials to help promote the drive.
- Share the upcoming Baby Item Drive with your congregation or group. Consider using our Amazon Registry or Material Donations Flyer.
- Collect items on your chosen date.
- Recruit volunteers from your church or group to deliver items to one of our First Care locations during office hours. For larger loads, we prefer they be delivered to Minneapolis, St Paul, or Rochester First Care. Please communicate with our staff when you anticipate dropping off items.
- Celebrate supporting families in Minnesota!
