Join our monthly supporters club – LA2020
We know that there is strength in numbers, and that a little support from many goes a long way. Together, we can make a difference for the families with babies and toddlers who just need a hand up.
By donating a monthly amount you will enable us to plan our income, and to be more effective in our work.
Your support will help us to:
purchase consumables such as nappies, wipes, formula, and toiletries for mums and babies
cover our operating costs, such as lease, electricity, insurance, and fuel for our deliveries van.
