Everything you see here is either broken, expired, or covered in dirt/mold. We are ran on donations and grants. When we have to waist our time cleaning up and disposing of other peoples trash, it takes away from our time with clients and our other responsibilities. Please share this with everyone you know that donates here and help us spread the word that we are not a dump!

We have had many generous donations of baby food, Pediasure, and Similac Advance formula! However, they do expire within the next couple of months and we would love for them to go to use before that happens.
If you or anyone you know can use some help with these items, please come to Cradle!
We are open Monday, Wednesday, and Thursdays 9 am-2 pm.

✨We have 20 prom dresses to give out!! ✨
These dresses are for prom only, you do not have to currently be a client to come pick one. We would love for these dresses to go to girls who are unable to get a prom dress otherwise!
If you would like to come try the dress on before taking it home, we have a space for you to do so!
Please come in during open hours to try on/take one home!
We will not hold dresses/first come first serve!

Thank you to Scott County Kiwanis and Scott County Community Foundation for helping us take care of our community

Scott County Kiwanis board members Zach Manton, Ryan Payne, Jennifer Coward and Scott Zellers present a check for $500 to Cradle Family Resource Center- FRC Executive Director Erin Manton. The grant was awarded from the Kiwanis Club of Scott County Fund at the Community Foundation and will be used to support CRADLE’s mission of helping children and families with clothing, diapers, wipes, and other essentials. In 2025 they have served more than 300 families, an increase of 50 percent from the previous year. They have distributed over 80,000 diapers, an increase of over 30 percent from last year. CRADLE is especially in need of formula (regular and gentle), kids oral hygiene, and female hygiene products.
