Alumni Spotlight: Service at Greenspring

February 28, 2022

Greenspring Alumni Lizzie Wiggin and Brooke Baylin recently partnered with our Lower Elementary students to promote a coat drive for ShareBaby, a non-profit supporting women and families in Baltimore. ShareBaby collects and distributes essential child care items like diapers, coats, and clothes, to families in need in the Baltimore area. Brooke and Lizzie initially learned about ShareBaby when they were students here at Greenspring and they were inspired to continue the work as graduates. Thanks to the generosity of our community, they were able to deliver a total of 54 coats to ShareBaby! Lizzie shared:

“We are so thankful for all the work you have put in to helping us. We hope to work with you again in the future to continue supporting families and kids in Baltimore!”
