United Way of Horry County is hosting a Community Baby Shower, and they need your help!
They're collecting Bundles of Joy, Baby Basic Kits to deliver to 450 families with children ages 0-5 across Horry County, where only 30% of children enter kindergarten ready to learn.
Support young families and promote early childhood brain development, which will change trajectories, by donating:
- Diapers
- Wipes
- Designated children's book, such as:
- Bright Baby First Words by Roger Priddy
- Touch and Feel Baby Animals
- Baby's First Numbers
- Dear Zoo by Rod Campbell
- Put Me in the Zoo by Robert Lopshire
Or you can sponsor a Basics Kit with a $10 donation to support brain development for children 0–3, which includes books and Basics Insights enrollment.
Thank you for your donation at their event at Walmart Supercenter on Church Street in Conway June 9th and June 10th! It was great seeing you there.
If you'd like to give back, but you haven't yet, stop by United Way of Horry County in Conway to make a donation or sponsor a kit by Thursday, June 19th.
With the help of Two Men & a Truck, they'll deliver the Bundles of Joy, Baby Basic Kits to Conway Elementary School on Friday, June 20th.
Let's help boost their learning and invest in our children's future.
The United Way of Horry County Director of Education, Richard Williams, Jr., chatted with Van Roberts about their overall mission, their goals for this event and how you can help! Listen below.
