THANK YOU for Supporting Shower of Love Since 2006!

As of July 2024, the CCRB has retired the Shower of Love events in St. Charles County. It has been a pleasure to serve our county in this manner.

 

We encourage you to donate directly to one of the many dynamic nonprofits serving St. Charles County moms, babies, children, and caregivers.​​​

History

About Us

Shower of Love began in 2006 as a collection drive for diapers, wipes, and other baby care items. Donations are distributed to local non-profits serving pregnant women, babies, and fragile families in crisis residing in St. Charles County and Lincoln County, Missouri.

Churches, businesses, civic groups, schools, and other community members united in "showering" babies with love. With the support of our partners, Shower of Love helps reduce the risk of child abuse and eases financial strain on parents.

Shower of Love was a collaborative effort between the Community & Children's Resource Board of St. Charles County (CCRB) and the benefiting agencies. We are proud to have helped thousands of children, moms, and caregivers over the years.

Since 2006, Shower of Love has collected $1,065,000
in donations for St. Charles County babies and parents!
