Donating items for Babies, Children, or Pregnant Moms

There are times when we know of families with babies or young children who have specific needs.  If we have no such needs posted, and you have items to donate - some good organizations to contact are listed below. 

Baby Items
See home page for a list of any needs.


Good organizations to consider when making donations

  • Freebies for Babies Shop (run through Paoli Presbyterian Church) - located in Frazer Village - corner of Rte 30 and 352; donate toys, strollers, kids books, games, baby/maternity clothes, any other baby items (must be in good condition); donations accepted Saturdays from 10-12; call 610-251-9742 with questions.
  • Cradle to Crayons - Their mission is to provide, free of charge, low-income and homeless children from birth to pre-teen the basic essentials they need to be safe, warm, ready to learn, and valued.  Shire (a pharmaceutical company in Chesterbrook) is sponsoring a “Big Give” for Cradles to Crayons.  This organization welcomes donations of baby products and clothes.  There are occasional drives for such items - check out the website for a location near you:  http://cradlestocrayons.org/2/index.php
  • Maternity Care Coalition - accepts all sorts of maternity clothes, baby clothes, toys, baby furniture, etc.  they have an office in Norristown (1 West Main Street).   Click here for more information about this great organization.   http://www.momobile.org/programs/norristown.html
