Safe Haven Baby Box
A Baby Box is a safety device that legally permits a mother in crisis to safely, securely, and anonymously surrender her newborn if she is unable to care for the baby. Nationwide, 81 babies have already been surrendered using a Safe Haven Baby Box!
In a Pro Life effort, St. Alphonsus will sponsor a Safe Haven Baby Box at the Zionsville Fire Department! We are more than half-way toward reaching our financial goal, having already raised $6,000 of the $10,000 needed to purchase the box. In addition, we hope to raise another $5,000 for the installation of the box.
Please consider making a tax deductible donation to this life-saving effort by clicking this link to our website.
