Baby Showers
The Shady Grove Pregnancy Center is invested in the lives of newborns and their families. We have two programs to assist them — our Material Assistance and Parenting programs. Yearly, we provide help to over 400 families with little ones. Hosting a baby shower is the perfect way to fill our "closets" for babies in need.
