Healthy Mothers, Healthy Babies Coalition of Broward County is a non-profit organization dedicated to reducing infant deaths by providing resources and education to pregnant women, parents and their families. We are launching a new program, Helping Hands for Healthy Babies, aimed at raising awareness for our organization and helping us raise funds to continue to support families in our County. There are many easy ways that students can be involved and earn community service hours: A drive for baby clothes, blankets, toys, books, maternity clothes, gift cards to Publix or other major retailers like Wal-Mart, with event support, by helping in securing auction items for our 2010 Mothers Day Luncheon or by selling cupcakes cutouts. Please visit our website and if you are interested in supporting our cause and the families in our community contact Melissa Santos for more information!
