Capital City Baby Shower
The Capital City Baby Shower is a no-cost event that provides families with all of the essential baby items they may need. We believe that no family should have to struggle to provide their newborns with necessities like clothes, diapers, car seats, and pack and plays, which is why we are committed to ensuring that families in the Lansing area have access to these important items. The event is open to all families.
This baby shower offers a beautiful opportunity to unite various churches, pregnancy centers, organizations, and businesses to celebrate life through love, support, and generosity. This event will be a collaborative celebration in Lansing, created to help support men and women who are:
- Facing an unexpected pregnancy
- Questioning their ability to parent
- Desiring encouragement, and/or
- Needing items for their babies
