Get on Board 2008!
Angel's Wings was chosen to participate in the Lacy Leadership Association's Get on Board event held at the Eiteljorg Museum in downtown Indy on Wednesday, Oct. 15th. We met lots of interested volunteers and potential board members and learned about many other awesome non-profit organizations in our community.
Kelli’s Kloset
The September in-prison baby shower was a huge success!! There were almost 30 expectant Moms in attendance and 7 volunteers! Thank you to everyone who donated both their time and financial resources to help make a difference in the lives of these Moms and their babies!
Our next in-prison baby shower is scheduled for January. The total cost to sponsor a baby shower is approximately $1500, but we accept all donations. This is an important event for the Family Preservation Center at the women's prison. It provides some much-needed supplies for these infants and their caregivers. If you would like to know more about how to sponsor an in-prison baby shower, please contact us at info@angelswingsinc.org.

Child Placement Agency
The board of Angel’s Wings is looking at new and exciting ways to start caring for infants whose mothers are incarcerated. We attended a state orientation on the qualifications/training necessary to become a licensed child placement agency in Indiana. We are currently working to develop a budget and timeline and hope to be licensed soon.
