BOLIVIA, N.C. (WWAY)–A rainy day didn’t stop Novant Health from giving back to the community on Saturday.

A long line curled around Novant Health Brunswick Medical Center as the organization hosted its 11th annual free community baby shower.

Attendees received essential items such as diapers, food, bottles and even car seats. As families moved through the line, they also had the opportunity to learn about valuable resources from various community organizations.

Kevin Briggs, president of Novant Health Brunswick Medical Center, said the event highlights the power of collaboration between community partners and sponsors.

“I would just say that this is the power of not only the collaboration with all of our community partners and all of our sponsors, but really the leadership of our foundation,” Briggs said. “We work diligently to support the mission of our organization, but also help meet the needs of Brunswick County.”

Another baby shower event will be held at Novant Health New Hanover Regional Medical Center on May 16 from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.
