How it works

We all know it takes a village to raise a baby. With the help of donations and volunteers we create Little Village Boxes and distribute them through our trusted partners to families who need a little extra support in what we know can be a challenging time.

1. Donations 

 

You select the financial amount you would like to donate – we have options for one-off, weekly or monthly donations. We also accept product donations. Check out our donate page to learn more. 

2. Little Village Boxes

 

Your donation goes directly towards us purchasing essential items for Little Village Boxes. For a full list of items that we include with in our boxes, see below.
