Event Description:
Help us create baby clothing and bedding for sick and needy newborns. Attach snaps, cut fabric, learn to sew or tie quilts, learn to use a serger, etc... (No skills required!) We will teach you everything you need to know at the event!
Every 3 hours, a baby in Minnesota goes home with a free bundle of 25 items produced by Bundles Of Love. Without this bundle, the baby would have nothing - no clothing, no bedding, no diaper bag. The parents frequently are unable to provide these basic needs and our volunteers have come forward to help.
Bundles of Love:
Founded in 1999, Bundles of Love Charity has been helping families by providing clothing and bedding in correct sizes for sick and needy newborn and premature babies in Minnesota. We donate these in a bundle of 25-30 items to local hospitals and other social service agencies where they are given to the families that need them the most.
We provide clothing, bedding, and necessities for infants in need. We provide correctly sized clothing for premature infants of all sizes.
We provide infant burial garments and keepsakes for families who have suffered the loss of a baby.
We provide "comfort items" such as quilts, hats, and booties for sick infants in hospital intensive care units.
