At Baby Bundles, our mission is to provide a bundle of clothing and essential baby items to families living in financial need in the Charlotte area, helping to foster a more positive start for their newborn baby.  Baby Bundles has been dedicated to empowering families in the Charlotte area since 2010. We distribute our completed bundles, valued at $350 each and containing 40+ items, in collaboration with 18 partner organizations.

We are humbled to have grown from distributing 75 bundles in 2011 to 3,000 in 2024, with over 16,000 lifetime families reached. While we are projected to distribute 3,000 bundles, we know that nearly 5,000 infants are born into families earning below 185% of the Federal Poverty Line (NC Department of Health and Human Services 2020) who could also likely benefit from our program. 185% of the FPL for a family of four in 2020 was $48,470 total household income (ASPE 2020 Poverty Guidelines).  We consistently hear from our partners that they would be able to distribute more bundles to families living in financial need should we have additional resources to offer.

The families we serve are welcoming new children into the world, and we are honored to walk alongside them on this journey.  Confronted with the enormous challenges that living in poverty brings, our families remain steadfast in their commitment to providing a positive start for their newborn child and are nothing short of remarkable.
