Please Join With Us

Alternatives would be delighted to have you participate in our Center’s events and activities coming up in the next year. This is a great way to support our mission, meet others involved in our ministry, and to provide services in order to keep Alternatives Pregnancy Center going.

Baby Bottle Drive:
We celebrate Sanctity of Life Sunday with our Annual Baby Bottle Drive. We send hundreds of baby bottles to local churches, and the churches distribute these bottles to their congregation. People take the bottles home for a few weeks, fill them with spare change, and then return them to their church. The Baby Bottle Drive fundraiser is an easy, yet significant, way to help the mission of Alternatives Pregnancy Center. If you would like to participate, please call Alternatives and let them you’re your church is interested. A staff member from Alternatives will deliver bottles to your church and arrange to pick them up approximately three weeks later. In addition, to assist you in promoting the Sanctity of Human Life Sunday, you may also request bulletin inserts. Information will be printed on the back of each insert describing Alternatives’ mission and services offered.

Starting Date: January 18, 2009
Location: Participating churches in the Cedar Valley
