On the second Saturday of every month Breakfast with Baby at The Salvation Army in Des Plaines provides spiritual and material support for families.

If a woman is at least seven months pregnant or has a child under one year of age, she can bring her whole family to Breakfast with Baby.

After a hot breakfast, the older children go to a class where they sing, do a craft and hear a Bible story. The men gather in another area for an informal Bible discussion group.

The moms and toddlers then have a time of encouragement from the Bible followed by shopping. In a temporary store-type area, they can select gently-used baby clothing, toys, books, strollers (or other large items as available). All items are FREE!

They then receive a package of diapers for each eligible child.
