Operation Top Knot Baby Shower

We have a special program dedicated to expectant military families called Operation Top Knot. Top Knot is a nationwide network of service clubs and individuals who sew, knit and shop to create gift baskets for infants and expectant mothers in military families. Deployments are difficult on the entire family unit, but even more so when that family is expecting or has an infant child. Our mission is to commend the women and children at home for their strength, to let them know we are proud of their sacrifices as well as their husbands' and fathers', and most importantly, to do what we can to support them during the emotionally challenging times of deployment. OTK is excited to announce we will be throwing our first ever baby shower at Fort Hood on Saturday, April 30, 2011!

OTK would like to enlist the help of all you wonderful people in the community in getting the necessary items for this shower.

We are looking for any and all donations but some examples include:

Diapers
Baby Wipes
Baby clothes
Diaper Bags
Bottles
Baby blankets
Hypo-allergenic lotions/shampoo/babywash
Gift cards (Target, Babies R Us, Walmart)

Anything else you think a new mother could use.

All donations are needed by March 1 April 15, 2011 to ensure time to wrap and distribute for the shower.

Please contact Amber Eller, OTK Battle Buddies Team Leader for more information or ways to drop off donations.
