Help Them Both: Summer 2024

This summer, individuals across the country are stepping up to serve and support their local pregnancy centers, food pantries, thrift stores, and other life-affirming organizations. These organizations walk alongside both mom and baby, offering real hope and help that empowers them to thrive. Together, we can strengthen the life-affirming safety net and help them both.

Will you join us?

Yes! I want to help moms and babies

Step #1: Find a provider

Use the Her PLAN directory to find a life-affirming provider in your community. Pick one of the following and select your state to see local providers:

Pregnancy CenterFood PantryThrift Store

Step #2: Call and ask the provider for needs

Once you have selected a provider, use the Her PLAN directory to find their contact information. Give them a call or send them an email. Ask what the organization’s greatest needs are this summer. Answers could vary from monetary or material donations to volunteers or prayer support.

Need other ideas of how you can help? Consider the following: DONATE needed supplies, VOLUNTEER your time to sort donations and help with needed tasks, or PRAY to uplift and support the organization and the moms and babies they serve.

Step #3: Find friends to help

Gather your friends and neighbors so, together, you can serve moms and babies. Consider inviting your church community, neighbors, family members, friends, and colleagues to participate and help you collect donations of food, clothes, or baby supplies or spend a weekend volunteering at your local life-affirming provider.

Step #4: Serve, donate, or pray

Help meet the needs of the life-affirming provider you selected. Volunteer your time or bring donations to your local life-affirming assistance provider. Help meet the needs of a provider in your community by volunteering your time, bringing donated food or material items to support their ministry to moms and babies, or supporting their work through prayer.

Unable to volunteer or gather donations for a local life-affirming provider this summer? You can still participate! Life-affirming organizations such as pregnancy centers and maternity homes are constantly under attack, despite their dedication and faithful service to moms and babies. They urgently need your prayer support.
