For Kate, an It's in the Bag donation helped provide all the essentials she needed...
For Kate, being a first time mum at a young age was so daunting and scary, as there were so many new things to learn and so many things to buy.
Kate was provided with a Mum and Bub bag that had all the essential things that has everything she needed to enjoy her first moments with bub.
"The bag made me feel prepared and excited for what is to come. I'm so grateful to have the support from such a wonderful organisation that has helped so many women with providing them with the necessary things that all women should have access to."
You can help a new Mum like Kate, by making a donation today.
Your donation can make a big impact
Many of the Mums who receive our bags can barely afford the basic essentials for themselves due to escaping domestic violence, let alone the essentials for their newborn.These bags take a little bit of the pressure off so they can enjoy the first moments with their precious bub.
A Mum and Bub Bag is so expensive to put together so it’s no surprise we never get enough bags to help the women in need.We need your help to raise $100,000 so we can pack an additional 1,000 bags for new Mums in need.
We are so grateful for the amazing generosity of Louenhide who have kindly donated 1,000 nappy bags! With your support, we can fill these bags with essential items to help new mums in need and their bubs.
