This is our Kiwanis Governor’s service project for the year. She is a maternity nurse herself and has seen the need for this personally. Bridget Bromirski & Debbie Mone came to the shower & opened all the baby gifts for the SVMC. All of the Kiwanis members and their friends and family purchased or made baby blankets, Onies, New born outfits, Hats, Socks and all infant necessities. There is a desperate need for infant layette sets in the maternity ward. With close to 500 births a year, some of the families are lacking in the needs of their baby. If you are interested in having a Baby Shower of your own, contact SVMC.
