From You To Me: A Local Resource For Neighbors In Need

Learn How You Can Help Or Request Help

By Clara Taylor April 11, 2021

Have you heard about From Me to You -NRV?   This is a resource to help families get items they may need.  I asked Clara to tell the Macaroni Kid community about it and how they can help, or request items. 


Clara:  I started this organization in 2020 because I wanted to do everything I can to help those in need.  I want to show love and compassion to families, give support to those who need it, and I want families to know they aren't alone.  My organization is named From Me To You. The objective of this organization is to help families with items that are needed the most. Newborns, babies, toddlers, and even older children have benefited with donations supplied by From Me To You-NRV. 

My goal is to create bundles for those in need, and anyone is welcome.  The bundles are based on donations of money and items.  I sort,  clean and wash items and clothes, and deliver the bundles to those in need. There are many ways YOU can help me and our community.

If you have donations of gently used items, you can message me and I can arrange to pick up items where you are located or we can meet somewhere between. If you want to help but don't have items, you can make a financial donation.  

Items Most Needed Include:

  • Baby, toddler and kid sizes (all ages) especially newborn and 6-9 months
  • Baby toys, toys, stuffed animals, books
  • Diapers (All Sizes), pull ups (All Sizes), and wipes (Any type)
  • Baby bottles, pacifiers, sippy cups, baby bowls and utensils, baby food, formula, etc.
  • Diaper rash cream, baby shampoo, baby wash, baby lotion, etc.
  • Personal hygiene items
  • Food and snacks
  • Tylenol and ibuprofen for infants and toddlers
  • Sometimes there is a need for cribs, high chairs, walkers, car seats and other infant furniture

From Me To You accepts donations via Venmo and PayPal, and I am open to other ways my organization can receive donations. Please email me with ideas at crww95@gmail.com or message me via the Facebook Group From Me To You NRV. 

I am a mom myself with a family to take care of, but I make time to respond to requests and donations, create bundles, pick up and deliver any moment I can. Thank you for your interest in my organization. I know families appreciate all the help and so do I. It really takes a village. 

If you have questions, would like to make a donation, or are in need of help, you can message me on Facebook or Email me @crww95@gmail.com. 

I welcome you to learn more about us on my Facebook group From Me To You-NRV.
