As the chilly weather sets in, many families in King County face the challenge of keeping their little ones warm, dry, and healthy. That’s where WestSide Baby’s annual Give Joy campaign comes in!
From November 1 to December 31, we invite you to partner with us and make a difference. Together, we can raise funds, collect warm clothing and diapers, and bring joy to local families in need.
This season, let’s spread joy together!
Join us for Give Joy 2024!
Your generous donations help WestSide Baby get double the diapers with our bulk purchasing power.
Hosting a drive encourages your friends & family to get involved by collecting diapers & basics for babies.
Create your own personal page that you can link to and share with friends. Visit the link to our campaign site, scroll to the bottom of the page and select ‘I Want to Fundraise for this!’

Give Joy’s Most Needed Items
During the months of November and December, we request your help in collecting the specific items we need most right now. Our program staff works hard to track and learn what our partner providers need most for the children and families they care for.
All these items and more can be found on our Amazon Wish List.
WestSide Baby staff use the final two weeks of each year for an important inventory of our White Center Hub. You can drop off Joy Drive items until December 13th. After that, we look forward to seeing you for an item drop-off again in January!
Thank you for your generous drive collection and donations this year!
