Each year <strong>Wee Help<\/strong> purchases new baby items, and members assemble these items into a layette package which are then delivered to our six partner clinics and hospitals. Each layette package contains a gown, footed sleeper, onesie, hooded towel, diapers, wipes, socks and a hand-knitted cap.<\/p>\n<p>In the fiscal year ending May 31, 2024, Assistance League of Atlanta provided 1,200 newborn layette packages to mothers in need. Your gift of $100 will fund five newborn layette packages.
