Our Second annual Community Baby Shower is a month away! You and your organization are invited to bring any new or expecting moms you work with to spend an afternoon in celebration. The free event will be held on March 23rd from 2-4pm at The Bayfair Center in San Leandro. All guests must be registered to attend the event. Please Register guests here by March 1.
Last year was our first baby shower and it was an amazing day with over 100 parents and children attending and over $50,000 of gifts distributed. Families stayed for hours, formed connections with each other and gained information about community resources for new parents. We received great feedback from the moms we were celebrating, their children and the organizations that attended. With the addition of our new headquarters at the Bayfair Center, we will be able to make this year’s event an even bigger success!
Any expecting parents or women who have a baby less than 3 months old are invited. Each attendee is welcome to bring their children and one guest. All moms will be given a Lift Me Up gift bag full of needed baby items and access to our free store with clothing, maternity items, and baby gear. The Shower will have food, pampering stations, activities and information tables with resources for new moms and kids.
We also hope that any organizations with clients in attendance can send a representative to host an informational table or provide promotional materials to share with other moms. You are also welcome to come just to enjoy the day with your clients. We hope mothers will connect with each other and with needed resources for baby care, mental and physical health, and local resources. We will have members who speak Spanish, Farsi, and Chinese in attendance to help with language barriers. Please let us know if your client will need a translator.
To ensure that we have gifts for each mom, all guests must be registered by their organization or social service worker. Please Register guests here by March 1. You can also respond with an estimated number of guests your organization will be sending and can reserve a spot for them until they are registered. If you would like to register your organization for an information booth or would like more information please do so here.

Do you know a badass mama-to-be who deserves to be celebrated? Is she a single mama who could use support? A woman who inspires you with her compassion and service for others? Or a teacher, friend, or another woman who would benefit from being lifted by her community? Please nominate her here! We'd love to shower her and her new baby.
Community Impact LAB, an East Bay nonprofit hosts an annual Community Baby Shower for vulnerable moms to shower them with support, a Lift-me-Up baby box filled with goodies, and a few hours to feel celebrated. This year we're also inviting the community to nominate moms. (Our attendees are referred to us from our nonprofit + social service partners.) Mamas-to-be and moms with babies 4 months or younger are eligible.
Also, if you work at an agency serving moms, email us at info@communityimpactlab.org to reserve a spot for your clients. And if you or your business/org wants to donate to the shower, the lift me up box program, or volunteer at the Shower, please let me know!
