United Way Community Baby Shower donations
The United Way of Southern Chautauqua County is hosting its annual Community Baby Shower until June 8.
The shower helps support at-risk families and babies in the community—many of whom cannot afford necessities like bottles, diapers, strollers, pacifiers, bibs, and more.
Community members and groups can help by:
• Participating in the community baby shower drive at Wegmans in Jamestown, where items can be bought or dropped off in their collection bins Saturday, May 20 through June 2.
• Hosting a baby shower: Create an event or drop off at your business or organization and bring the essentials for families to the United Way office (208 Pine Street, Jamestown between 8am-4pm Monday-Friday) by June 15.
• Buying items on the 2023 Community Baby Shower Amazon Wish List. The list includes top needs from community agencies, and purchased items can be directly shipped to the United Way office.
• And by donating to the United Way on June 8 during Give Big Chq
United Way Community Impact Manager Nicole Gustafson said over $5,000 worth of necessities for babies were collected in 2022.
