Every fourth Saturday of every month, the church offers free emergency assistance to parents who need help obtaining baby necessities. Diapers, wipes, and occasionally other items also may be available. We do not require proof of residence or income. Limit one per household. Come by any time between 10 a.m. to noon to the church office, which is the white house next to St. George’s at 3 Emerson Street.
This service primarily runs on donations from church members and those in the community. We used to help less than 10 families a month but recently we served 70+ families. Because of the tremendous growth we’ve seen in the last two years, we are holding a diaper and wipes drive!
We are asking for help collecting diapers and wipes through January. All brands are appreciated! Sizes 3-7 are in high demand. We have an Amazon wish list for those looking to donate and have items shipped directly to the church. Just click on this Amazon link.
Please contact stgeorgesanford@gmail.com if you would like to donate or want to put out a collection bin at your work/organization. We ask that you bring your donations to the church on Friday, January 31st anytime between 10 am and 2 pm. We are located at 3 Emerson St. in Sanford (across from Cumberland Farms). Call (207) 324 – 8119 to request a pickup, arrange an alternate drop-off time or for more information.
We thank everyone who has given so much so that this may continue!
