CAAHT Rotary Supports New Mothers
On November 19, members of the CAAHT Rotary Club gathered to complete the club’s District Grant project, New Beginnings: Postpartum Kits for New Mothers. The project supports new moms who are facing financial hardship or who may not have strong family support by providing them with essential supplies for recovery and newborn care.
In addition to maternal and child health items, Rotary members also donated infant board books to help nurture early literacy from day one.
CAAHT members were joined by their families, Topeka High Interact students, members of Topeka South Rotary, and community guests. Together, volunteers assembled 50 fully stocked backpacks to be shared with the community.
All kits were donated to the Topeka Doula Project and local hospital maternity wards to help ensure mothers and their babies get a healthy start.
