Care Baskets - Service Project

At this year's Regional Conference, we will be helping to put together care baskets. A care basket is a special gift basket designed for a birth mother, who after making the loving decision to place her child for adoption, often leave the hospital empty handed and with a heavy heart. These baskets are put together with each birth mother in mind and are specifically made just for her. The baskets consist of bed and bath products, candy, frames and journals. These baskets are hand delivered by other birth mothers from the LDS Family Services Birth Parent Support Group.
