South Parent Pantry Impact Jan – Sept 2022

By Tasha Miller

During our second year of offering the Parent Pantry, we are so grateful for all of the ways that we have been able to come together with the community to support local families in getting some of the items they need to care for their young children.

In the first 9 months of 2022 the South Whidbey Parent Pantry distributed across 232 families …

1345 articles of clothing
203 packs of diapers
193 toys
266 books
79 blankets/quilts
51 breast pumps or bottles
87 large items (such as pack n plays, strollers, swings etc)
76 units of formula or baby food

And we are just getting started!

Stop by our expanded north Parent Pantry in Oak Harbor open every fourth Saturday of the Month from 11am – 1pm.

The Parent Pantry is fully donation based, stocked with free clothing, baby items, diapers, formula, toys, shoes, books, and more. We value and try our best to have a few free thank you goodies for parents and caregivers too!

The Pantry’s success is due to the dedication of the all-volunteer organizing team and dedicated shopkeeping volunteers. We are growing and we are looking to build a dedicated team of volunteer shopkeepers and organizers. if you are interested feel free to  contact us by emailing esther@whidbeymothermentors.org

Support is a fundamental need for parents and care Support is a fundamental need for parents and caregivers as they are raising our littlest community members.
The positive effects of feeling upheld and supported by a community builds mutual trust, reduces stress, and give children a sense of belonging in the wider world. 
Our in-home mentorship program is developed in a way that both families and volunteer mentors can form meaningful relationships that are mutually beneficial for everyone.
We invite you to learn more about our mentorship program. You don’t need a special skill set, just an open heart and the desire to connect. We provide the rest! 
We are currently seeking volunteers. Email esther@whidbeymothermentors.org or visit us mothermentors.org to learn more. 
We have a family waiting for YOU!
