Mothers’ Helpers Hosts Mother’s Day Baby Item Drive in Montecito

MONTECITO, Calif. – Mothers' Helpers held a Mother's Day weekend collection event.

Community members dropped off essential baby items at Montecito Fire Station 91 on San Ysidro Road in Montecito.

The nonprofit collects infant car seats, strollers, baby carriers, diaper bags, diapers, and more.

"We are so grateful to the Montecito and Santa Barbara communities. They understand that parenting is hard under the best of circumstances, let alone if you are struggling to meet your family's basic needs," said Mothers' Helpers Executive Director Michelle Erickson. "We are proud to have been here for 15 years, helping take things that people have and give them to people in need, because every baby deserves to thrive."

The Mother’s Day weekend drive also set a goal of raising $5,000 to support local families.
