6th ANNUAL "MEET THE NEED FOR MOMS IN MAY"

Help homeless and displaced women and children in North Texas throughout April

"Meet the Need for Moms in May" is a donation drive Planned Parenthood of North Texas (PPNT) is sponsoring throughout the month of April.

We are collaborating with area organizations who help women-in-need with children:

• The Vogel Alcove in Dallas County (a day care center for homeless women’s children)
• Denton Country Friends of the Family (a shelter and outreach service for those affected by relationship violence and/or sexual assault)
• Hope's Door of Collin County (a live-in shelter for abused and displaced women and their children)
• SafeHaven of Tarrant County (a live-in shelter for women and their children). 
  

PPNT will collect only NEW childcare supplies through May 4 in North Texas area health centers and present the donations to moms in honor of Mother's Day.  In 2009, we collected 2,000 pounds of donations.  Please help us surpass that amount in 2010!
