BOISE, Idaho — The 19th annual Community Baby Shower is an opportunity for local charities, businesses, and viewers like you to come together and give Idaho’s babies a helping hand. Together, we’re raising money, essential supplies, and awareness to help ensure expecting moms and new parents have the resources they need to succeed.
Today, June 11, people donated in-person at Albertsons stores across the Treasure Valley from 8 a.m. – 6 p.m. Volunteers from local nonprofits accepted donations of new baby items, including diapers, wipes, and other essentials, as well as cash or Albertsons gift cards.
At the end of the day, Albertsons revealed their donations:
