For several years, the United Way of SCC has helped provide supplies and resources for Chautauqua County babies through the Community Baby Shower. Area businesses, organizations, book clubs, schools, etc. have all come together in unique ways to gather donated baby items. To come together in these efforts, some participate in team-building activities within their organizations, schools have collection activities to educate and engage students while also giving back to the community, and stores that sell baby items provide opportunities at checkout to purchase items and/or donate to the Community Baby Shower program.
This year, the Community Baby Shower collection will begin on May 1 and run through June 8, 2023. Items can be purchased on our Amazon Wishlist, at Wegmans from May 20-June 2, or you can collect brand new items at your organization or business and drop off items at our office (208 Pine Street, Jamestown) from 9am-4pm Monday-Friday.
