Voice for Life is hosting the annual Stuff the Crib benefit for the Mother & Child Education Center, according to Theresa McCreary, campus ministry. A crib has been set up in the Pilot House with tags labeled with the most needed items. These items will then be given to pregnant women and mothers of babies and toddlers who come to the center seeking help and support. Please take a tag or two and bring back your donations the week after Thanksgiving break, and thanks in advance for your generosity. For more information contact McCreary at 7131 or mccreary@up.edu.
