Newborns In Need: Champlain Valley, Vermont Chapter
Our goal is to work with Vermont programs and agencies that have contact with Mother's who need a helping hand with their new infant. We will work together to make infant necessities, collect donations, hold fundraisers, etc. as we build relationships within our group, share stories, smiles, and laughter. Whatever your skills are we can use you! Whether your talent is sewing, crocheting, knitting, marketing, accounting, shopping, organizing, etc. we can find a place for you. Do you think you have no talents? Think again... God created each of us with individual strengths. We will help you find yours and help you to develop it into something that God and His babies will cherish. Please read to the bottom of the page to see how you can help our ministry through time, baby need donations, or monetary. May you smile and be blessed as you give...
