“We truly appreciate Helping Hand Me Downs as they serve moms of St. Louis County through our Helping Beginnings Program through St. Louis Dept of Health. They supply everything from diapers, to gently used clothes, shoes, bouncer, tubs, car seats and cribs. We absolutely love how quickly they respond and have these items readily available. They are truly a life saver for these moms and moms to be.”
