Mission:
Gift of Life Foundation’s mission is to improve the health and well-being of mothers, babies and families to build stronger communities.
Brag Lines:
- GOL offers pregnancy and parenting programs that are designed to meet the unique needs of families. All of our programs are voluntary and are offered at no cost to expectant and parenting families, infants and children who are at a higher risk for infant mortality and live in Montgomery, Elmore, Autauga, Lee, Macon, Russell, Chilton, Crenshaw, Pike and Chambers counties.
- GOL program participants have gone on to be successful parents and achieve personal success based on the goals they’ve set with their nurse or family coach. Our alumni’s achievements include completing high school, two or four-year college programs, securing full-time employment and launching careers in fields like law, public service and healthcare.
Wishlist:
Diapers (new, unopened packages in all sizes), new breast pumps, safe sleep sacks, baby board books, corporate and community donations and community ambassadors who will share our message and help us raise awareness
Background:

Our parent educators, mobile family coaches and registered nurses help first-time and parenting moms and dads to develop effective parenting skills and connect them to community resources that help them increase economic self-sufficiency and succeed!
Events:
- OCTOBER 15 – Annual Candlelight Memorial for Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day
- NOVEMBER 11 – Operation Christmas Bottoms Diaper and Baby Wipes Drive

“The name of our organization is Gift of Life—and that name captures the heart of our mission. Bringing a child into the world is a beautiful gift. If there is anything that can be done to ensure the health and safety of that child, then it is worth every minute and every effort.”
