Bastrop Pregnancy Resource Center

Last year the BCRW adopted the Bastrop Pregnancy Resource Center as one of our ‘Caring for America’ projects.  They have just moved into a new, larger location and need some items that will help them settle into their new place.

Right now they have plenty of diapers, wipes and baby food.

The following is a list of their needs:

baby blankets, quilts
baby clothes for winter
baby lotions, soaps, shampoo and other toiletries
bookshelf
conference or other large table
wall decorations – ie: Hope, Faith, a cross (neutral colors)
volunteers
cash donations

If you can help in any way it would be greatly appreciated.  Their phone number is 512-629-8780

Please bring items to the next BCRW meeting or take them directly to the center at 82 Loop 150W (next to Texan Eye).
