Distributing Baby And Toddler Essentials To Families In Need
At Share Our Spare, our mission is to ensure that every child in Chicago has the essentials they need to thrive in the first five years of life. We do this by collecting new and gently used baby and toddler items from those with “extras” to spare and distributing them to families living in poverty through a sustainable network of volunteers, community stakeholders, and social service agencies. Items include: diapers, strollers, clothing, blankets, and much more. After the birth of her first child, Amy Kadens realized that being a new mom was challenging even with extra resources and support. Believing that no mom should have to endure the stress of providing the basics, she founded Share Our Spare to help mothers in need.
