The Strong Start Project

The Strong Start Project was created to support new and expecting families by providing thoughtfully packed diaper bags filled with essential items for both mom and baby.

Each bag includes practical necessities to help ease the transition into parenthood and offer support during the early days after birth. These bags are distributed through trusted community partners and healthcare connections to families who may be experiencing financial hardship or simply need a little extra support.

Our goal is to ensure every parent feels supported, prepared, and cared for—because no family should feel alone during such an important time.

If you are interested in donating items, please click our Amazon Wish List to help support families in need.
