At Almost Home, we support young moms every step of the way—from the first days of stability to long-term independence.
But those steps require support.
This Give STL Day, we’re focusing on the essentials families need to keep moving forward—everything from laundry and skincare to something critical for growing children: safe transportation.
As kids get older, booster seats become necessary—but for many of our moms, they’re simply unaffordable.
Here’s how your gift helps:
Each gift supports wellness with practical, sensitive-skin-friendly products and access to our on-site Family Health Clinic.

Why Your Support Matters
Skincare is healthcare. These products promote comfort, prevent infection, and reduce the stress of unmet daily needs.
Sensitive skin requires sensitive care. Many of the moms and babies we serve have conditions that require special products not covered by public assistance.
Small gifts make a big difference. A gift of any size helps restore dignity and improve health outcomes for a young family on their journey to stability.
Care evolves as families grow. Our moms’ needs don’t stay the same—and neither should our support.
Health and safety go hand in hand. From preventing skin irritation to ensuring safe travel, these essentials protect families every day.
Safety is not optional. Booster seats are required—but often unaffordable. Your support fills that gap.
Small gifts, lasting impact. Every item helps a mom feel more confident and a child stay safe and healthy.
