Mercy Center Hosts Community Baby Shower

Jennie Hagerty, the executive director of the Mercy Center for Women tells us the need is certainly there. Families all around Erie could use a helping hand, especially those with newborns or are expecting.

The community baby shower at the Mercy Center for Women aims to help new and expecting mothers give children the best start of life opportunity possible despite any adversity the family might face.

Families were provided with free baby supply kits to make those early days just a little bit easier, but opportunities were provided for families beyond just receiving diapers and blankets.

Several non-profits were set up at the center, letting mothers know they’re here to assist them throughout their parenting journey whenever it’s needed.
