Your Choices Randolph is a nonprofit based in Randolph County with clients in multiple counties, including Chatham. We provide compassion, hope, and help to men and women facing a critical pregnancy decision. We offer STI testing, pregnancy testing, limited ultrasound screening, and other services free of charge in a safe, confidential, judgment-free setting. We walk with our clients through and after the decision process.
COVID-19 definitely affected how we give back to the community! As the pandemic ramped up, we heard from many clients how difficult it was to find diapers, wipes and formula on grocery store shelves. As a result, we began offering those items, normally kept for clients, to anyone in the community with children in that age group. Each child was eligible for a pack of diapers, wipes and formula weekly. Some families received multiple packs each week to provide for each child. Ministry partners rallied behind us and provided these items so our outreach could continue.
Throughout the course of the give-back program, we have given out over 750 packs of diapers, 600 packs of wipes, and 250 cans of formula.
The most memorable experience that comes to mind is the case of Hannah. As we deliver these critical items to each family at their car, we take the opportunity to determine how they were doing, their life circumstances, and how else we might help them. In the car-side visit with Hannah, we learned that she and her four children were living in her car. We connected with organizations who helped her find housing, childcare, and addressed other situations in her life. She is now thriving and grateful!
Readers can partner with us by providing diapers (Amazon Mama Bear diapers are great!) in sizes 3-6, baby wipes, and formula as we continue our outreach to the community.
