We received 2,456 diapers, 5,524 baby wipes, 64 new and used blankets/quilts, 484 articles of new/used clothing/shoes, 52 pairs of socks, 3 mittens, 49 hats, 67 bibs, 39 washcloths/bath towels, 33 baby care items, 23 baby bottles, 35 toys, 5 books, 2 diaper bags, 8 pacifiers, 186 nursing pads, 9 other baby care items, plus $220 cash donation for Prepares and $95 cash donation for SEAS Pro-Life. We filled 57 Prepares bags with these items. It was an amazing and successful event!
