Material Support - Gabriel Network

Pregnancy and parenting are joy-filled experiences, but they can also be challenging. You deserve support so you can build a successful future for your family.

Times are tough, and you are likely worried about how to afford newborn expenses, food, and more. Gabriel Network believes you should always have what you need to parent confidently.

We are a safe, supportive network of churches and volunteers ready and willing to meet your needs. Regardless of your situation, help is available.

How We Can Help

When you become a Gabriel Network client, you become our priority. We exist to help people like you.

Contacting our helpline allows us to connect you with a local Angel Friend Team that can provide material, emotional, and spiritual support. You can also be directed to a PRC that can help you find referrals, clothing, and more.

Angel Friends may offer practical support through:

A “Welcome to Gabriel Network” baby bag
Help with baby items, such as diapers, wipes, clothes, car seats, and pack ‘n plays
A baby shower

Please note that items will vary based on availability.

Difficult situations come in all shapes and sizes. You may be a single mom wondering where to find diapers, or perhaps you’re expecting your first child and worrying about what lies ahead. We know the uncertainty can feel overwhelming.

You are more capable than you realize, and if you’re struggling financially, there’s no shame in asking for help. We have a supportive network of people who can help you through tough times and find the supplies you need for your parenting journey.

"It's been more than a decade since I've been in the Gabriel Network, but I am forever grateful for their services. I was young, pregnant, and without much support. The Gabriel Network provided myself (and my newborn) a safe living space, counseling, resources, and even a baby shower for myself and two other roommates...your kindness when no other options seemed available is beyond appreciated and touches my heart. Thank you, Gabriel Network." - Olivia

"The Gabriel Network has truly been a blessing to me. If you are looking for a place that helps you spiritually and emotionally, look no further. I was a few months pregnant with nowhere to go and little to no resources, being that I moved from another state...[the home] was VERY comfortable, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who just needs a boost to get them back on their feet! I would like to thank Mrs. Valinda and Aletheia for the amazing work they are doing for the community. It is people like you who make the world go round. I am forever grateful." - Junye

"The Gabriel Network has literally saved the day! I was in contact with Mrs. Cunningham about my specific needs, and she went above and beyond to help out. She has truly been a blessing to myself and my family! Thank God for her and this organization."

"I learned about the Gabriel Network through a local pregnancy center. When I called, I was greeted with a pleasant voice on the other end of the phone. The woman who took my information was very pleasant and seemed genuinely invested in what I was going through at the time. During my stay in the maternity home, I was given an opportunity to focus on being a mother. I was also afforded the opportunity to finally cry it out and simply breathe. Something that didn't seem manageable just a few months prior became possible. The Gabriel Network did not provide me with a handout. They provided me with a hand-up. I am forever grateful for the group of individuals that supported me during my time of need."

"Honestly, my journey wouldn't have been complete if I didn't walk into the Gabriel Network. Their staff is amazing. They work as hard as they can to get where you need to be. As long as you meet them halfway, you will truly be blessed. Your life does not change unless you want it to change for yourself. And, of course, they will be with you every step of the way, no matter what you choose (adoption or not). They welcome you with open hands no matter what size, color, religion, etc., you are. If you are pregnant and homeless with no shoulder to cry on, your best bet is to call the GABRIEL NETWORK. CHANGE STARTS TODAY!!!!!!"

"Loving, caring environment providing assistance to those in need who are or think they might be pregnant."
