Help us support single moms all across North America this Christmas!
(Because we’re “pro-birth” and “only care until the baby is born”!)
UPDATE: IN LESS THAN FOUR DAYS, OUR CHRISTMAS REGISTRY PROGRAM 2020 IS COMPLETE!
Thank you so much to everyone who participated!
THE RECIPIENTS
We asked Canadian and American Pregnancy Resource Centers to submit the names of clients who would most benefit from some Christmas cheer! Applications came in from across North America. We chose 12 single mothers in great financial need who are trying their best to better their lives for their children.
We’ve set up an Amazon gift registry for each mom based on her particular needs and wishes. When you purchase an item, it will be delivered directly to her.
Please be sure to choose the correct shipping address! It will be marked as the ‘Gift Registry Address’.

KEANNA
GA
Keanna has been a single mom since she was 19. She had two babies while living in a shelter and over the past four years has been making progress toward stability. She has no family support. Both of her sons have special needs, adding an intensity to their care and making it very difficult to find childcare which would make it possible for her to get an occasional break or to get a job. COVID added even more of a strain with less support for her children's care and programming needs. Let's encourage Keanna this Christmas and remind her that even though she feels alone, she is seen and cared for.
