Widow to Widow Christmas Banquet

The Widow to Widow (W2W) groups in Sherwood Park will hold our annual Christmas Banquet on December 11, 2019. The catered meal, door prizes and speaker are a highlight each year. Over 150 ladies attended this event last year. This year, those in attendance are invited to make a contribution to “Basically Babies” during the evening. Some of our groups have been knitting and sewing gifts to present. The event will be a Sherwood Park Alliance Church – we are grateful for the continued use of their beautiful facility.

Basically Babies is a registered charity that works to provide for the basic outfitting needs of newborn babies born to families in extreme need in the greater Edmonton area (and now in Calgary on a limited basis). We offer the gift of a complete first year’s wardrobe for these infants in the form of a beautiful colour-coordinated basket filled with clothing, outerwear, blankets, toys, storybooks, sleepers, undershirts, footwear and other baby essentials. We call these packaged gifts “Layettes” and they are both practical and beautiful, providing hope and dignity to those who receive them.  (You can visit their website here.
