As the clock ticks on, I thought I'd take this post to share more about Global Links -- this time their New Baby Collection. As a first-time mother, I know the fear and stress involved alongside even all the happiness in the world when you find out you're expecting. There are so many things you need, so many things that you don't realize you need, that it can all get a little overwhelming.
Global Links regularly donates medical materials to improve conditions in maternity wards in resource-poor areas, helping women deliver their babies in safe and clean environments. We also provide new parents with carefully selected supplies for after the baby arrives, all packed in a sturdy, handmade bag.
How can you help?
A few ways! You can donate supplies from this list or this list -- the latter of which is from Target. Who doesn't love shopping at Target?!
You can even make a bag yourself -- as seen here -- to be sent to a mommy-to-be.
One of the coolest things, I thought, was that you can have a baby shower for a mom-to-be to ensure she has everything she needs to bring a baby into this world. Interested in hosting a baby shower or wanting more information? E-mail jnovelli@globallinks.org!
