Baby Items
Thank you for your interest in donating to Community Connect.
Our hubs are not accepting donations at the moment as most are full. Please keep checking this page, as we will update here once any hubs are open for donations again.
If you are in or near Dublin, and have a moses basket to donate to Holles St maternity hospital, please email Lisa at donations@communityconnect.ie and she will be pleased to arrange to get it from you to them.
You can also support our work by sponsoring a package of items for a family in need HERE.
Thank you.
