Franciscan Health, in collaboration with the Montgomery County Health Department, recently hosted a community baby shower at the Montgomery County 4-H Fairgrounds in Crawfordsville.
The event welcomed 87 new and expectant mothers, providing education, community connections, and gifts. Attendees received information on various aspects of childbirth and motherhood.
The baby shower also facilitated networking among current mothers, expectant mothers, and their families.
"The turnout for the baby shower was amazing and we are very grateful to all of our partners who helped make the event the success that it was," said Tristan Kirby, director of Franciscan Health Prenatal Assistance Program. "Having an event like this is very important to the community. The families who attended went home not only with a great gift but also made connections and gained knowledge that will be a great benefit as they raise their families. We look forward to continuing to hold events like this in the future."
The Franciscan Health Foundation provided each family with a large baby shower gift consisting of highchairs, portable cribs, video baby monitors, single strollers, and double strollers. Additionally, every attendee received a book set courtesy of Penguin Random House.
