Opportunity Details

Help with Baby Box Distribution Port Chester Open Door

Open Door's Baby Box initiative is 'A Newborn Starter Kit for Moms in Need'. We will provide our Baby Boxes filled with infant essentials and add support of wrap-around care, health and wellness support for the moms. The boxes may double as a bassinet for those who need it!

We need volunteers who can speak Spanish  to  help register our expecting moms, chat about an educational video, help the ladies with a short questionnaire and give the Baby Boxes!
