Our “Earn While You Learn” program can begin as soon as that positive pregnancy test has been taken all the way through to the beginning of wild toddlerhood. We have classes and subjects ranging from the first trimester through the end of the pregnancy, and then a new parent class that covers important information relating to 0-24 months of age.
Participation in our pregnancy and parenting classes allows women and their families to receive regular material assistance in the form of diapers, clothing, toys, books, formula and more—which is only available through the gracious donations of our community members who bring in new and gently used items.
Our program offers both online and in-person classes for both English and Spanish speakers. Additionally, we have had an in-person labor and delivery course (including breastfeeding information) for women to take with a support person as they prepare for their upcoming due date. That is currently on hold as our educator is currently on a missions trip abroad, and we miss her dearly!
We love each opportunity we have to meet with these women and their families, and it’s been such a blessing to partner with some local churches (Orangeburg Baptist & Shelter Cove) to provide adequate space for our expanding program!
