Reusing old Stuff. Making new friends.
We organized Freebies for Families in memory of Marlen Ochoa-Lopez, a young mom from Pilsen who was tragically killed while trying to get some free baby clothes via a Facebook connection. Those in need - and those wishing to unload gently used baby and kid items - can safely drop off, pick up or both at this event - and begin to "build their village."
NEXT EVENT: May 31 @ St Gall School
No Referrals, Please
We do not have the capacity to take appointments.
We receive many calls from hospital staff and patients in search of diapers, and that is not a service we can offer, unfortunately.
We are a volunteer group, and our monthly event is meant to encourage young parents to meet each other. For immediate needs, the best referral is to Greater Chicago Food Depository's Find Food/Diapers tool online. Thanks.
