DAY ONE BOX

Peoria County, Illinois

Our 
Mission

We provide new parents in Peoria County Illinois with the essentials, education, and encouragement they need for their baby’s first days of life.

Day One exists to promote healthy outcomes, encourage love, and strengthen the support of each child. Inspired by Finland’s Baby Box program, we gift families a Day One Box — filled with more than $300 of newborn essentials along with educational resources — to ensure every baby begins life with dignity, safety, and love.

How it Works


1
Create your Parent Profile. Answer a few questions about you and baby.

2
Attend at least 4 prenatal appointments with your healthcare provider and upload proof of visits to your Parent Profile.

3

Let us know through your Parent Portal when baby is born and we will deliver your free Day One Box!

Your Gift Makes a Difference

Every $300 donated funds one complete Day One Box for a local family.

Your generosity helps ensure that every baby in our community begins life safe, cared for, and loved.
