Bakersfield Baby Shower Event

Bakersfield Baby Shower Event

As the holiday season approaches, it’s a time for generosity and compassion—qualities that are especially important for families in need. That’s why 23ABC is launching a heartwarming initiative on Thursday, November 21, aimed at gathering baby items and supplies to assist local families struggling to provide for their infants.

Mark your calendars! The drive-thru donation event will take place at 23ABC Studios located at 321 21st Street in Downtown Bakersfield, running from 4:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Whether you’re an early riser on your way to work or a night owl winding down your day, there’s a window of opportunity to make a meaningful difference.

Who Will Benefit?

The donations collected will go directly to two vital organizations in our community—PLACEHOLDER7985677951b3b146 and PLACEHOLDER97ceb15dfab40cac. Both organizations provide essential services and support to local families, ensuring that they have access to the resources they need during critical times. Your contributions can help alleviate some of the challenges faced by these families, making a positive impact in our community.

Can’t Make It in Person? No Problem!

If you’re unable to attend the event in person, there is still a way for you to contribute. You can easily make a donation online at any time through the Scripps Howard Fund. Every little bit helps, and your generosity can go a long way in supporting our local community this holiday season.
