Help Give Hope to Children
Become a Holiday Helper for Eastside Baby Corner
With the days getting shorter and the weather outside getting colder, children in our area need your help now more than ever.
EBC - West Sound (a hub of Eastside Baby Corner) is located in Bremerton and helps kids from birth to age 5 right here in our community. Everything from clothes, toys, books, shoes, diapers and more. EBC - West Sound is here to help and they work with a network of provider partners that work with families in need. In order to help these families, EBC - West Sound relies on support from the community through donations of essential items for kids in need.
You can help by being a Holiday Helper! Sign up to be a Holiday Helper with EBC - West Sound by collecting warm coats and boots so kids can stay warm and dry. Give joy this season to babies and toddlers (birth to age 5) by collecting games, books, puzzles and more, allowing children the opportunity to play (all toys should be small enough to fit in a backpack). Help bring joy and hope to children this season with the donation of a new, unwrapped gift for a child birth to age 5. It’s so easy to help, just click this link: Organize A Drive - Baby Corner.
“Generous donations from the community enable EBC to ensure that every child they serve is warm, safe, and feels loved. We help parents focus on their children, not the stress of the world they are raising them in, by providing the basics that every person should have: warm clothes, shoes that fit and protect, and tools/toys to nurture their growing minds,” said EBC - West Sound Hub Coordinator, Melanie Magnenat.
