Serve Off-Site
There are a number of ways to serve with First Coast Women’s Services outside the walls of one of our Centers. These service options help supply FCWS with the funds and physical materials we need to serve our clients.
Select an off-site serving option from the list below to learn more about it!
Create a stocking for our clients! This is a great project that you and your small group can create and drop off during the holidays at one of our five centers.
Filling up a bottle with spare change is a small way to make an eternal difference in the lives of unborn babies and their mothers. You can easily participate by ordering baby bottles for your church, community group, or work place.
A layette is a set of new baby clothes, supplies, and accessories for a newborn decoratively placed in a plastic baby tub, packaged in tulle or cellophane to keep contents together.
Our Client Advocates oftentimes get the opportunity to share the Gospel or offer spiritual encouragement to our clients. When a client shows interest in learning more about Salvation, or even surrenders their life to the Lord, we love to provide them with a “New Believers” or “Spiritual Encouragement Bag” full of items to help them along in their walk with God!
Material items are vital to FCWS’s Earn While You Learn program, through which our clients have to opportunity to be educated on their pregnancy and prepared for their baby’s arrival, while receiving material needs along the way. Gather a group at any time of year to throw a “Baby Shower” and collect items to donate to FCWS clients, while enjoying fellowship at a fun and worthwhile event.
