About Us

---

Each year, many new parents across Minnesota and its neighboring states are financially stretched to bring their baby home from the hospital. Second Stork partners with hospitals to distribute essential infant-care items like diapers, wipes, and playards to families in need when their newborn is discharged. Second Stork meets this challenge with a highly efficient operation run by volunteers.

Second Stork welcomes your monetary donations or contributions of new essential items. Your donation helps us provide basic infant-care supplies that are distributed by our hospital partners to families who are most in need right before they leave the hospital with their newborn. 

We only accept new items as recommended and approved by healthcare professionals including the American Academy of Pediatrics. All items must be in their original packaging or with their original tags.

Who We Serve

---

In partnership with hospitals, Second Stork provides a helping hand to mothers who lack even the most basic infant-care supplies needed to keep a baby safe. Hospital social workers use their expertise to identify parents in crisis. With no red tape and no strings attached, they distribute critical supplies provided by Second Stork to the family immediately upon their newborn’s discharge.
