Donations Needed for the FAM Closet
We are well into 2022 and the closet has seen many families come to find items that they need from car seats to diapers to clothing and many other items. The closet is not bare as God has provided through the generosity of many on a continual basis. However, we are in need of a few specific items. Would you consider filling the gaps by purchasing or donating these specific items?
- New or gently used diaper bags
- New spill-proof sippy cups
- Size 18-month girls summer clothing
- Size 24 months and 2T girls summer clothing
- Size 24 months and 2T boys summer clothing
- Size 6, 7, and 8 girls’ summer clothing
- Size 4T/4, 5, 6 boys summer clothing
- Diapers sizes 2, 4 and 5
- Baby wipes
- Convertible car seat rear to forward-facing (2-3)
- Full Harness forward-facing car seat (2)
- Infant carrier car seat with base (car seats should be new or gently used at least 2 years before expiration)
- Pack ‘n Plays
- New bed pillows
- (New only) Tennis Shoes for boys and girls of all sizes. (This has become a more common request lately.)
- Gift cards (Target, Walmart, Hyvee, Fareway) in amounts of $25, $50, or more. Gift cards are a huge blessing for families to cover items that we can not hold in our closet or may not have at any given time.
Your generosity is greatly appreciated – know that the families that visit the closet are grateful!
