My Personal Connection-Beth

My connection with Infant Crisis Services begins as college student looking for a job. I met and instantly fell in love with the babies and staff at Infant Crisis Services. The mission was powerful, filled and I could see there was a very real need. I knew I had found my calling. I was hired as the Volunteer Coordinator, not realizing the impact this job would have on my life. Working with the volunteers at Infant Crisis Services I learned quickly what compassion and generosity at its core looked like.

A more personal connection with our volunteers began when I was diagnosed with stage 3 cancer last year; the volunteers at Infant Crisis Services were and still are such a wonderful support system for me and my family. I believe they were essential to my recovery and victory over cancer. I can tell you first hand… our babies who get services are getting the worlds best. As the Director of Volunteers, it is my honor and privilege to serve next to our volunteers feeding babies.

Our volunteers embody our mission, “Infant Crisis Services provides life sustaining formula, food and diapers to babies in times of crisis…Because no baby should go hungry”
