In January, the non-profit opened up a “Bundle of Hope Room” in downtown Jacksonville.
“When you’re having a baby, you have all the hope in the world for the child that you’re about to bring into the world and when they’re here, so it seemed like a fitting name,” explained Tami Gonyea, Director of Social Services for the Salvation Army in Northeast Florida.
The space is meant to provide a safe haven for up to two pregnant women at any one time. The room is furnished to help make pregnant moms as comfortable as possible leading up to the birth of their child.
