Project 39 – Mother of All Happy Hours
May 9th was the date for Project 39’s Mother of All Happy Hours in Our Town. More than 40 hosts gathered baby items to help support single mothers in The Family Conservancy’s Healthy Parents, Healthy Kids Program. Participants in the program gain points by attending weekly parenting classes focusing on topics ranging from prenatal care to healthy cooking. Points received from attending classes can then be ‘cashed in’ at a baby store created by Mother of All Happy Hour donations.
