HARBOR SPRINGS, MI, UNITED STATES, November 12, 2026 /EINPresswire / -- For more than 16 years, the Christ Child Society of Northern Michigan has gathered every Fall at Birchwood Farms Golf & Country Club with Birchwood members and Emmet County volunteers to assemble approximately 350 layette totes for new mothers. The effort helps provide essential newborn supplies to families across Northern Michigan and Michigan's Upper Peninsula.

Through its longstanding partnership with the Christ Child Society, Birchwood Farms provides storage for merchandise purchased, hosts the two-day tote-assembly effort and serves lunch to volunteers. More than 60 Birchwood members participate in the organization's charitable initiatives, reflecting the community's ongoing commitment to supporting young families and strengthening the region.
Once completed, the totes are distributed by the Northwest Michigan Health Department to families in Antrim, Emmet, Charlevoix and Otsego counties. In Michigan's Upper Peninsula, the Newberry Health Department distributes totes to families in Luce, Mackinac, Alger and Schoolcraft counties.

“Birchwood Farms' support helps ensure that new mothers receive essential supplies for their babies when they need them most,” said Kim Jones, president of the Northern Michigan Chapter of the Christ Child Society.“This project shows what community members can accomplish together for families throughout our region.”
