Project HOOD and Pastor Corey Brooks to Host World's Largest Baby Shower
Chicago, Ill. – Project HOOD, a non-profit organization led by Pastor Corey Brooks, is set to host the World’s Largest Baby Shower from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 13. This monumental event will take place at the New Beginnings Church, located at 6620 S. King Drive.
The event is a beacon of hope in the community Project HOOD serves, where the rate of fatherlessness stands at a staggering 80%. This initiative will kick-start a renewed commitment to providing much-needed support to single mothers, while simultaneously encouraging the involvement of fathers, extended families, and the broader community.
With the World’s Largest Baby Shower, Project HOOD intends to deliver immediate, practical support to families in need, whilst spotlighting the pressing issue of fatherlessness and single parenthood that is rampant in many communities.
Pastor Corey Brooks, the founder of Project HOOD, invites individuals and corporations alike to partake in this groundbreaking initiative, saying, "This event is more than just a shower; it is a gesture of compassion, unity, and hope. We believe that every child deserves a safe and loving environment, and every mother, has the resources and support to provide it. Our mission is to stand in the gap for these families, fostering a sense of community that turns challenges into opportunities.”
Continuing, Pastor Brooks adds, "We know we can't do this alone. We need the involvement of all stakeholders, both at a local and corporate level. Whether it's donating baby items, volunteering time, or offering financial support, every bit helps. We are creating a village of support, and I firmly believe that together, we can make a significant difference."
Project HOOD's event will feature essential baby supplies, educational resources, and a host of support networks for single mothers, all aimed at fostering a nurturing environment for the youngest members of the community. The World's Largest Baby Shower symbolizes the powerful potential of unity and compassion, demonstrating how, through collective effort, society can uplift those who need it the most.
