Mission

We are here to support new moms on their postpartum journey. Our goal is to make life a little easier for families by providing them with essential items for baby and mama. We want moms to know that they are not alone. We are here, and we care. In Kind was started by mamas on a mission to help fellow moms out. Bringing home a new baby is wonderful and amazing, exhausting and stressful. Our hope is to relieve some of that stress by supplying families with a box of carefully chosen, high quality items to get mama and baby off to a great start.

Gift Box Donation

In Kind Boxes provides natural and organic essentials to new moms in need through our carefully curated gift boxes. It is our belief that every mom deserves quality postpartum care. We work hard to show new moms that they matter, and to help them know they're not alone.

To distribute our boxes to families who need them most we partner with well established organizations who provide prenatal and postpartum care to families in need.

Donations to In Kind Boxes are used to purchase the essentials we fill our boxes with.

We are a volunteer run 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, so feel great knowing your donation is helping people who need it most.
