Needs From: United Way of South Central Tennessee

We are seeking volunteers to host donation drives to collect baby essentials for families with young children in our programs. Many of the families we serve are working to stabilize their lives and provide safe, nurturing homes for their children, and access to basic baby supplies can be a significant financial burden. Volunteer groups can make a meaningful difference by organizing workplace, school, church, or community donation drives to collect much-needed items such as:

diapers (all sizes, but recently we've used a lot of Pull-Ups, sizes 2-3T, 3-4T)wipesdiaper creams and pastesbaby lotionbaby wash and shampooand other infant care essentialsspecific need currently for 2T girls clothing

These supplies are distributed directly to families with infants and toddlers, helping reduce stress and ensuring children have the care items they need to stay clean, healthy, and comfortable. By hosting a donation drive, volunteers help strengthen families and support healthy beginnings for our community’s youngest children.

Suggested set-up: Designate a collection spot at your office/church, share the list of needed items and how it supports local families served by TTT, and set a deadline for when items should be donated. After the deadline, schedule a time to deliver donations to our office, or we can come to you. We would love to take pictures to celebrate the efforts of your team's donation drive and give thanks through public recognition!
