A PLEA FOR HELP—1^st Way Pregnancy Resource Center supplies their clients, who are  in need, with practical support including diapers, formula, maternity and baby clothes, as well as some baby furniture.

The center’s clientele has grown to over 3,000 women per year. In one day, they see over 30 women in 4 hours. Their work is helping the poorest of the poor in the inner city and their cupboards are nearly bare.

The Center is in desperate need of diapers in larger sizes (sizes 4-6), maternity clothes for summer months, baby clothes—boys sizes 18 mos-2T, girls 12 mos-2T, as well as formula, especially Similac or Enfamil with Lipil and Iron. As a last resort, they are reaching out to the parish communities who have helped them in the past.

OLPH will be accepting donations on behalf of 1^st Way throughout the month of July. Please bring your donations to the large vestibule before Mass. We will facilitate transporting to their downtown Phoenix facility.

For more information about the Center, please call Kay, (602) 261-7522.
