Haiti Baby Boom!

We have been blessed with little ones! We now have 14 children age 4 & under. When the police brought our 2 newest additions a week ago, we couldn’t squeeze them in our Baby room. It was already overflowing with 8 babies. Four 4 year olds had already been moved out of the baby room. It was time to move furniture! We opened a toddler room next to the baby room.The toddler room has 6 children, 4 toddler beds, 2 cribs, and 1 Nanny bunk. The baby room has 3 cribs, a pack-n-play, and a Nanny bunk. We are also opening up a toddler playroom to give our little ones a safe place to play.

Any of you who have children know that babies need a lot of stuff! Can you or your group help us collect these needed baby items? We have designated September as Baby/Toddler month and will gather nursery supplies all month and then ship them to Haiti.

We need:

Infant Formula
Crib & Port-a-crib Sheets
Towels
Cloth diapers

Disposable diapers- size 4 & 5
Plastic pants
Training pants
Lightweight fleece blankets – twin & crib size
$ for shipping

We also have a baby registry set up at Target; Wal-Mart; Babies-R-Us; and Toys-R-Us. To make it more convenient items can be purchased off the registry either in-store or online. We are registered as JBA-Haiti (Last Name), and also as Cheryl Merritt. Thank you for all you continue to do to provide for these little children who are “precious in His sight.”
