Councilwoman Ung emphasized the importance of supporting mothers, particularly amidst economic challenges. She stated, “Motherhood is demanding, especially with the current cost of living. This initiative aims to alleviate some of the burden.”

Dominique Brown, a 26-year-old expectant mother from Queens Village, shared her gratitude for the assistance. Preparing for the arrival of her first child, she collected diapers, formula, and wipes from the giveaway. Brown remarked, “Every bit helps, especially in today’s tough economy. Being a first-time mom comes with numerous expenses, so this support is invaluable.”

She highlighted the significance of the donated products in easing her transition into motherhood, expressing how meaningful the gesture is not only for her but also for her soon-to-arrive baby girl.
