way to “give back” to PEPS and meet new friends in West Seattle. PEPS provides training, and

Tuesday August 22 from 5:30-9:30pm.

to the West Seattle community for helping to Stuff the Bus

several people who can help keep “The Babe” open for 3 hours each Saturday
during the school year to receive donations and sort items. Sign up for just one Saturday or
several – whatever works best for you and your schedule. Please
call (767-1662) or email (info@westsidebaby.org)

home for those outgrown onesies and carseats! Please contact them at
the above phone/email to set up a date and time. The
