A Little Pumpkin Is on the Way!

This morning, United Way of Greater Union County (UWGUC), the City of Plainfield, Plainfield Action Services, and several nonprofit partners came together to host a special community baby shower celebrating 30 expectant mothers in Plainfield!

It was a beautiful morning filled with connection, resources, giveaways, and support for growing families as they prepare to welcome their little ones. We are proud to partner with organizations that share our commitment to ensuring families have the resources and support they need during this special time in their lives.

At UWGUC, we believe that supporting families starts before a baby is even born. When we come together as a community, we can make a meaningful difference for parents and their little pumpkins!

Stronger families. Stronger communities. Stronger together!
