The public is invited to join with students at Butler County Community College for a collection to benefit local children in need this weekend.
Members of BC3 Social Awareness Club are collecting baby items Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon in the lobby of Succop Theater.
Items such as unscented baby wipes, collapsible laundry baskets, crib mattresses and sheets, diapers, and clothing will be donated to Matrona, a Cabot-based family resource center supporting new parents and families with young children.
Raffle tickets for an iPad and giftcards up to $100 will be available to donors and those who win baby shower games.
