TCAA's Health Start hosts a Baby Shower!
On Saturday, March 28th, the Las Noches Women's Club hosted the 1st Health Start Baby Shower event at Tempe Community Action Agency. The guest list included expectant mothers and new mothers who have attended Health Start classes on topics including; nutrition, brain development, self-esteem, depression, and accessing health insurance benefits.
Celene Post and 8 other members of the Las Noches Women's Club provided food, drinks, 6-7 baby outfits for each child/soon to be born infant, diapers, baby wipes, lotions, shampoos, baby oil and more. The women's club brought games to play with prizes.
The mothers who participated were touched with the generosity of these women and grateful for all their effort including their gift of time. The Health Start moms thanked the volunteers from Las Noches Women's Club and the TCAA Health Start staff with thank you cards including family photos and expressions of their appreciation for the wonderful event. It was a very special day for everyone involved.
There are over 80 Tempe mothers receiving pre and post natal education and support through the Health Start Program at TCAA.   |
