Host a Clothing Collection or Drive

Turn Your Community Into Care

In 2025 alone, Gently Hugged delivered $276,930 in essential baby items to families in need. Every collection, drive, and donation helps make this impact possible.

Hosting a clothing drive is a simple and meaningful way to support babies and families across San Diego County. Whether you’re part of a business, school, faith community, workplace, or group of friends, you can collect essential baby clothes and items that directly support local families.

Host a Clothing Drive

Organizing a clothing drive is a great way to bring people together around a shared purpose. Daycare centers, preschools, places of worship, workplaces, and community groups are all wonderful settings for collecting baby clothing and essentials.

We will support you with helpful materials such as flyers, posters, and collection bins. Most drives run for one to two weeks and are easy to plan, while creating a meaningful impact for families in need.

Host a Baby Shower for Gently Hugged

Looking for a meaningful way to celebrate? Host a baby shower with a purpose and help collect new baby clothes and essentials for Gently Hugged care bundles.

Invite friends, family, coworkers, or your community to bring new baby items instead of traditional gifts. It’s a joyful way to celebrate while helping fill care bundles for local families.
