Mission: Baskets for Babies is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization and all donations are tax-deductible. We are currently located in the Spokane Valley. We are incorporated with the State of Washington. We have been distributing to families in our community since February of 2010Our goal is to provide basic baby supplies and clothing to new parents, who cannot afford to do so, due to the loss of a job, illness, or other life struggle, living in the Spokane (and Coeur d'Alene) areas. We are a Cribs for Kids partner. We promote Safe Sleep to all of our families. Our Baby Basket program gives children born into hard times, the chance for healthy development that every child deserves. Being able to provide their baby with a safe bed and basic necessities increases the self-esteem of new mothers in need and makes for happier, more confident moms. ( currently our program covers mom's in their last trimester and babies up to 6 months old. . )
