The Women of Nativity (WON) held its annual Baby Shower after all Masses on June 3 & and 4. WON extends its sincere thanks to the Nativity Parish community for your support. Your generous donations of countless baby items and $1,725 in cash will go a long way in helping new mothers in our area. The looks on the staffs’ faces of these organizations when we delivered the items makes it all worth it. Thank You!
About
WON’s Annual Baby shower supports organizations that help mothers at various stages of the family process. For 2023, the baby shower will support the MaRiH Center, Catholic Charities Pregnancy and Adoption Services, A Woman’s Choice, ECHO, Lorton Community Action Center, Stella Marina, Divine Mercy, Tepeyac, and Hope In Northern Virginia.
Through these organizations, assistance is given to women before the birth of their child and it continues after the birth so that their babies are clothed, nurtured, and cared for. Your contributions make it possible for these wonderful organizations to help others!
Please contact Angela Coghlan at acoghlan@verizon.net with any questions.
