The Christ Child Society of Tucson is a non-profit association of volunteers whose mission is service to God's children in need, regard- less of race or creed. We are one of 45 chapters of the National Christ Child Society which has a presence in 22 states with over 5,600 nationwide volunteers.
Working with various community partners, we provide layettes a.k.a. "baby shower in a bag" for mothers of newborns filled with diapers, clothing, blankets and toys. We read and provide books to .elementary school children and provide foster teens with their basic hygiene needs after they are displaced from their homes.
Through donations and talented quilters, we help over 300 moms of newborns each year. The Christ Child Society of Tucson's Wings program supports Aviva Children' Services and Casa de Los Ninos who serve foster children m the Tucson area with their basic needs after they are displaced from their homes. Through parish donations of items for the drawstring bags, we help over 400 teens each year.
We collect toiletries and sew and fill drawstring bags so that teenagers who have been removed from their homes in a crisis situation have basic hygiene items and spiritual support.
In addition to toiletries, undergarments, each teen receives a daily devotional to provide daily inspirational thoughts.
