"Our babies should never have to wear unwashed clothing because mom has no money for laundry."
Clothing insecurity impacts lives in a major way from a child not having boots, socks, or a winter coat. 10-15% of family income is spent on clothing. While there are resources for housing and food; there is none for clothing. The results of lacking the basic essentials to purchase or launder clothing: drop out, low self-esteem, unsafe measures to obtain items including theft.
Rosemary's Babies is addressing this issue by offering support via Petals Pantry & Boutique. We provide items for mom, dad, and baby at no costs to low costs. Most items are new or almost new to ensure parents feel confident and self-respect.
Petals Pantry is open January 2021, Tuesdays & Saturdays by appointment only.
