Get Involved

Because of the generosity of our community, we’ve been able to provide safe shelter and support for hundreds of women and their babies for over 40 years. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, we rely solely on donations and private funding to keep our doors open.

Looking to support our mission? We have several opportunities available! Your contribution is greatly appreciated and will provide hope for generations to come.

Volunteer Opportunities 

  • Host a Baby Shower: Many of our expecting mothers come to us with nothing.
  • Host a Sunday Dinner at our home:  This is a great way to meet our residents and share a meal together. 
  • Babysitting:  This can be done in our home during bible studies, classes, or during resident's volunteer hours. 
  • Drivers:  Many of our mothers don't drive so they rely on public transportation or rides to get to classes, doctor appointments, or grocery shopping. 
  • Mentoring: Be a role model for one of our residents, giving regular guidance and time. 
  • House Maintenance or Repairs: Perform minor maintenance or repairs, on as needed basis.

Host a Baby Bottle Drive

A Baby Bottle Drive is an easy and effective way to support the lifesaving work of Tender Life year-round. Many churches and organizations raise thousands of dollars in one Baby Bottle campaign!

A Tender Life Baby Bottle Drive is simple! All you have to do is:

  • Contact Tender Life and let us know how many Baby Bottles you need.
  • Distribute Baby Bottles to your church members or organization.
  • Church members or colleagues fill the bottles with change, bills, or checks.
  • Return filled bottles to the church, or organization.
  • A church or organization representative delivers the bottles to Tender Life.
  • Many churches run Baby Bottle Drives for a month-long drive and return bottles at the end of the month.
