WELLSBURG -- The St. John the Evangelist Parish Altar and Rosary Society held its annual baby shower in support of the Aim Women’s Center on Nov. 3.

Rebecca Cohen Morris, Aim’s executive director, gave an informative talk on the center’s mission, current updates on improvements the center has been able to make and client success stories thanks to local support.

Pregnant women in need can come to the center for testing and medical treatment. Aim’s mission is to provide support during pregnancy and after birth for women who choose life over abortion. A nonprofit center, Aim relies on groups to hold baby showers to support the needs of clients as well as donations from the community. Volunteer opportunities at their center are also a way to donate.

The organization was able to raise $1,000 for AIM in addition to a matching check from the parish. Individual gifts and donations were contributed by society members.
