Material Needs
Our clients work hard to earn ‘Care Cash’ to purchase their material needs.
We respectfully request items to be new or in ‘like new’ condition.
Material goods offer practical assistance in Jesus' name.
Each center and clinic stocks a resource room called The Source, from which clients who participate in our "Earn While You Learn" program can earn needed items for their pregnancy and for their baby. We are continually stocking our shelves with a variety of practical goods.
Most Needed Items
Over the past year it has been increasingly difficult to keep up with recalls and government regulations pertaining to the following items:
- Cribs
- Car seats*
- 3-in-1 strollers with car seats*
- Pack n plays
*By law, we cannot give out used car seats.
It requires volunteers continually checking for recalls on each item we receive as well as our staff sometimes having to carry large, heavy items from one location to another. While our desire is to see these continuing needs met, we would ask that instead of donating one of the above items, that you consider making a financial donation toward their purchase. (Checks can be made out to SVPS with a memo indicating “The Source”). We have selected reasonably priced cribs, car seats and pack n plays that we can order on line for the client to pick up at a local store. If however, you prefer to purchase a new item yourself and drop it off at one of our locations you may do so.
Our clients will also benefit from donations of:
- Double strollers, regular strollers and umbrella strollers
- Like new Pack 'n' Plays
- NEW Boppy nursing pillows
- Bassinets
- High chairs
- Diapers: all sizes thru size 6
- Crib bedding: pads and sheets
- Clothing: Infant to 4T
- Layette items: Brush & comb sets, pacifiers, bottles, bibs, diaper ointment, digital thermometer, baby shampoo, wash, and wipes. Baby towels & washcloths and receiving blankets.
- Maternity clothing (in style)
- Stroller Raincovers
Please note that we cannot accept used toys nor new or used stuffed animals.
