Every child deserves to begin life surrounded by love, opportunity, and a community that believes in their future.
At FACCES, we know that building strong families begins long before a child enters kindergarten. It starts during pregnancy and continues through those important early years, when parents and caregivers need encouragement, trusted resources, and meaningful connections.
For years, initiatives like the Baby On Board Social Club have helped expecting and new parents access the education, support, and essentials they need to give their children the strongest possible start.
Little Legacies is the next chapter in that commitment, a celebration of new beginnings and a reminder that every legacy starts with a loving foundation.
More Than an Event
Even though this is our August Family Gathering, we know that this is such a special opportunity for expecting parents, new families, grandparents, caregivers, and the villages that surround them to come together in one welcoming space designed to celebrate, support, and empower growing families.
Whether you’re preparing to welcome your first child or adding another member to your family, you’ll find practical resources, meaningful connections, and a community ready to walk alongside you through this exciting season of life.
What Families Can Expect
Throughout the evening, families will have the opportunity to:
- Receive baby essentials to help prepare for their newest arrival.
- Connect with maternal and infant health professionals and community organizations.
- Learn about early childhood education opportunities and family resources.
- Meet community partners committed to supporting children and families.
- Enjoy family-friendly activities while connecting with other parents, caregivers, and growing families.
Every conversation, resource, and connection is designed to help families feel supported—not just for one evening, but throughout their parenting journey.
