                             The Baby Closet


The Baby Closet's mission is to provide emergency supplemental assistance for needy families with babies ages newborn up to age 3. By reducing economic stress on families, we improve their quality of life and strengthen familial bonds thereby supporting the most vulnerable in society: babies.


Our mission is a strong affirmation of our Catholic belief that we support human life from conception through natural death. The Baby Closet exists entirely on donations and support from Catholic Charities, local parishes, schools, and other civic and private organizations.


We assist any family in need. A family can receive assistance once a month. Types of assistance include: diapers, wipes, formula, bottles, baby wash/shampoo/lotion, and other baby essential items.


Families needing assistance can visit The Baby Closet on Wed. from 2:00 p.m. - 6 p.m., Fri. from 9:00 a.m. - 12 Noon and the 1st Saturday of the month from 9:00 a.m. To 11:00 a.m.  No appointment is necessary.   However, a photo ID (such as a driver's license or passport) and birth certificates of children are needed.  Also, new clients must arrive 30 minutes before closing.


Contributions to The Baby Closet are tax deductable according to IRS guidelines for 501(c)(3) organizations.  The Baby Closet has a continuous need for:  Diapers, wipes, baby formula,

Baby wash, shampoo and diaper rash cream.


Monetary donations and gift cards are always welcome!
