Share Our Spare, a Chicago nonprofit, is holding a 'Christmas in July' drive to collect gently used baby items and winter clothing for families in need, providing essential supplies such as diapers and clothing.
How many baby items do you have in storage that you’re never going to use again? In this morning’s Good News Guarantee , we introduce you to a nonprofit that will take the items off your hands and gift them to Chicago families in need. At a warehouse on the Northwest Side, Santa’s helpers are gearing up for Christmas in July.
"There's an immense sense of gratitude, because living in low-income communities or living in poverty often times creates a lot of stress in the household so that sense of relief knowing that there's going to be a consistent supply of a basic need for their children, just gives us a sense of relief and gratitude," said Sarah Spunt, the executive director of LIFT-Chicago, a nonprofit in Bronzeville that receives donations for families.
