This Saturday, August 27, 2022, Ramsey County’s Mothers First program is hosting its inaugural Community Baby Shower. The Mothers First Community Baby Shower is designed to support both new and expecting parents residing in Ramsey County. All our welcome to take part in this celebration and those in attendance will learn about important resources for young families, including free books, how to start a college savings account, where to find gently used maternity and baby clothing giveaways, and access to self-care and other vital services.
This event is free to all, but Mothers First invites families to register in advance at eventbrite.com. There will be goodie bags available for participating families, along with free food, games for kids, raffle prizes, diapers, and maternity and postpartum supplies.
