Baby Safety Supply Drive

Parenthood comes with many challenges. For first-time, young, or low-income parents, creating a safe and healthy environment can feel overwhelming. September is National Baby Safety Awareness Month - a perfect time to support families by providing essential items that help keep infants safe from harm.

How It Works

Whether you’re volunteering individually or as a group, CHS makes it easy to make a difference right from your own location. Simply host a supply drive, collect new baby safety items, and coordinate with CHS to deliver them to children and families in need.
