Helping Mamas assists in a variety of ways, including: collecting essential items, such as diapers, pack n’ plays, new bottles, clothes, period supplies and new car seats, then distributing the donated items to case workers within its partner locations.
“All this allows our clients to focus on job training, parenting education and violence prevention instead of worrying about these essential items,” noted the organization’s website.
“The strength of our model is in partnering with organizations to help their clients with everyday essentials,” the website further stated.
