Nearly 80 women registered to attend. The event aims to assist mothers facing hardships by providing essential items for their children. It also serves an educational purpose, offering information and help on postpartum care and breastfeeding.

'I was always raised by a village, different moms, and that really touched my heart. Here, the City of Greenville's outreach is incredibly important and being able to support families in need is one of our major goals.'
