She wasn’t afraid to show that this had been a hard time in her life and it was also obvious how much she loved her child and how thankful she was to have made the choice of life.” - Our Lady Queen of Peace
“(The Care Net speaker) did a wonderful job telling how miraculously God moved to supply The Elizabeth House /Care Net property! We want him to come more often!!” - Pastor Dick Sisson, Gateway Community Church

Blackhawk Church “Love Madison”
Over 40 volunteers from Blackhawk Church served at Care Net as part of their annual “Love Madison” outreach. This group of wholehearted and energetic volunteers gave Care Net’s building and grounds a spring makeover, as well as finished stuffing our many Baby Bottles for our yearly campaign. We were so thankful to have such a big group tackle our big projects. Thank you Blackhawk Church!
Countless baby bottles were prepared in just
one
afternoon thanks to these volunteers.
Thank you Blackhawk!
Campus Crusade for Christ Agape
Twenty women from Campus Crusade for Christ Agape had their spring work day at Care Net. They did everything from stuffing Baby Bottles for our summer campaign to cleaning our facility. This group of women was so enthusiastic about helping us! They were relieved to know a place like Care Net existed in the Madison area.
Stuffing baby bottles can be fun when
surrounded by a group of friends.
Thanks Campus Crusade Agape for all your hard work!
Door Creek Church Serve 2010 
On May 22nd, a group from Door Creek Church came to Care Net for their "Serve 2010". For four hours, this group assisted in painting, cleaning, assembling gift bags & helping us prepare for our fall banquet. They accomplished so much in such a short amount of time! Thank you, Door Creek, for your hearts of service.
(This man cheerfully repainted the trim of our building. Thank you!)
The Elizabeth House was thoroughly cleaned
thanks to a group of 12 individuals.
Blackhawk Church's Madison Mission
Over twenty 7th and 8th graders from Blackhawk Church came to Care Net to help with various projects. They conducted a food drive for The Elizabeth House, sorted donations and folded baby clothes in our Care Market. And they did this all with great enthusiasm and joy! We loved having these wonderful helpers in our midst. Thank you Blackhawk!
