Details

A Baby Supply Kit Drive is a hands-on service project where volunteers assemble small but impactful kits to support new moms and babies. Participants can choose to create one or more of four types of kits—Newborn Clothing, Baby Bath Supplies, Baby Layette, or Postpartum— each filled with essential items that provide comfort and care during the early days of parenthood. With a goal of preparing at least 10 kits—but always welcoming more—this project allows volunteers to make a direct and meaningful difference in the lives of mothers and babies in need.

Kit Options:

The first step in hosting a Baby Supply Kit Event is choosing which type of kit you'd like to create. Volunteers can select from one of the four options below:

Baby Girl and Baby Boy Newborn Clothing Kit (gender specific)
- Each kit should include: 1 toy, 1 board book, 1 package of baby socks, 3+ white onesies, 2 sleepers, and 2 outfits (all in size newborn). Each kit will be gender-specific.
Baby Bath Supply Kit
- Each kit should include: 1 baby bath towel, 2 washcloths, baby soap/shampoo, a baby grooming kit, a baby thermometer, and diaper rash cream.
Baby Layette Kit
- Each kit should include: 2 pacifiers, 2 quality bottles, 1 bottle brush, 2 bibs, 3 burp cloths, and 1 baby blanket.
Postpartum Kit
- Each kit should include: 1 package of long or extra-long sanitary napkins with wings, 1 package of disposable breast shields, 1 tube of breast cream, and 1 peri bottle.

What You Will Need

Volunteers to gather and assemble kits
2-Gallon zip-top bags
Sharpie/Labels for bags

Step by Step Instructions:

Plan a date and time for your event.
Coordinate with the representative from Pro-Life Utah (Cortney Albanese, 801-8092100) to confirm your event date and discuss any questions.
Hold a supply drive at least 2-4 weeks in advance to collect the necessary items. Encourage participation by sharing a list of needed items on social media, at church, and with family and friends. Consider setting up an Amazon wish list for easy online donations.
Organize the collected items before the event. Sort donations by kit type so volunteers can assemble kits efficiently.
Host the event. Assemble the kits in 2-gallon zip-top bags, ensuring each one includes all required items. Aim to complete at least 10 kits, but any number will make a difference!
Label the kits with their type (e.g., "Baby Layette Kit" or "Postpartum Kit") for easy distribution.
Communicate with Cortney Albanese (801-809-2100) to coordinate the drop-off of completed kits and schedule a delivery time.

Final Thoughts and Thank You

Your willingness to take part in this project is a powerful act of love and support for mothers and babies in need. These kits may seem small, but they carry a message of hope, care, and community. By giving your time and effort, you are helping new moms feel less alone and more equipped to welcome their little ones with confidence.

From all of us at Pro-Life Utah, thank you for your generosity, compassion, and dedication to life. Your kindness makes a real difference, and we are so grateful for your support!

Baby Supply Kit Event

Details

Hosting a Baby Shower is a heartfelt way to surround a mother with love and encouragement as she prepares to welcome her baby. It’s a chance to celebrate her journey into motherhood, reminding her that she is not alone and that she has a community that cares. Through shared laughter, meaningful gifts, and kind words, volunteers create a beautiful moment of joy and reassurance, showing her that both she and her baby are cherished.

If your organization chooses to host a shower in conjunction with Pro-Life Utah:

What You Will Need:

A venue (home, church, or community space)
Decorations
Food & drinks
Wrapping supplies (gift bags, tissue paper, or wrapping paper)
A group of 10 supportive guests

Pro-Life Utah Provides:

Planning Support / Communication with the Guest of Honor
Digital Invitation
Gifts
2-3 Pro-Life Utah Guests

Step by Step Instructions:

Coordinate with Pro-Life Utah– Contact Cindy Strong at cindy.strong@prolifeutah.org or (801) 949-3546 to begin planning. Pro-Life Utah will work with the expectant mother to find a date and time that works for both you and her. This process may take some time, so reach out early.
Choose a Location– Find a venue that feels welcoming, such as a home, church, or community space. Once confirmed, report the details back to Pro-Life Utah.
Invite Guests– Pro-Life Utah will provide a digital invitation and baby registry for you to share. Your organization should aim to have at least 10 support individuals (guests) attend. Guests can bring an additional gift or contribute food for the shower.
Prepare the Gifts– Pro-Life Utah supplies the essential baby gifts, which will be delivered at least one week before the shower. Once received, wrap the gifts to add a personal touch.
- Food: Plan light refreshments for 15-25 guests. Common options include fruit, veggies, cheese & crackers, cookies, chocolates, and lemon water. However, feel free to choose what works best for your group!
- Activities: Simple activities help create a positive atmosphere. Ideas include:
  - Providing note cards for guests to write advice or encouragement for the mom.
  - Writing uplifting messages on newborn diapers for late-night changes.
  - Playing lighthearted baby shower games (optional).
Host the Baby Shower!– This may feel different than a traditional baby shower since guests may not know the mother personally. To create a warm atmosphere it may be a good idea to have each person introduce themselves, starting with the mom. Expect 2-3 Pro-Life Utah representatives to attend and help celebrate alongside the group.

Important Note:

Although Pro-Life Utah helps women who were originally seeking an abortion, we are very careful not to talk about this at the shower. Our focus is on celebrating the new life that is about to be born, not on the mother’s past considerations. She may feel shame or regret for having considered abortion, and family dynamics may mean that this information has not been shared with her guests. To protect her privacy and dignity, please avoid any discussion of abortion. If someone asks about the event, simply say that you are part of an organization that supports women in unplanned pregnancies.

Final Thoughts and Thank You

Hosting a baby shower is a beautiful way to remind a mother that she is not alone. Your kindness, time, and generosity create a moment of joy and encouragement that she will carry with her into motherhood. Thank you for stepping up to make a real difference in her life!
