H7: Hope Center Baby Bottle Campaign
What can spare change really do? At First Christian Church (FCC), the answer is: a lot.
Each year in May and June, FCC joins hands with the Hope Center in Greeneville, TN, for their heartfelt “Baby Bottle Campaign”—a simple but powerful way to support women facing unplanned pregnancies. Across all church campuses, empty baby bottles lined the tables, waiting to be filled with coins, cash, and even checks. Church families took them home, filling them with love and generosity. A few weeks later, the bottles came back—clinking with compassion.
This year, FCC members raised $4,639.72—a testament to what can happen when a church family rallies behind a meaningful cause.
The Hope Center, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, provides critical resources for individuals navigating the uncertainty of an unplanned pregnancy. Whether it’s offering pregnancy tests, counseling, education, or simply someone to talk to, the Hope Center staff walks beside each woman (and man) who enters their doors offering compassionate care, options, and support—always confidential and always free.
According to Executive Director Brittany Adams, the Baby Bottle Campaign plays a vital role in keeping those services accessible. The funds help sustain everyday operations and support Honeysuckle Studios, a housing program for pregnant and new moms who need a safe place to land and rebuild.
Looking ahead, the Hope Center will host its Annual Fundraising Banquet on Tuesday, October 23 at 6 p.m. at First Baptist Church. This important evening will highlight the ongoing needs of both the Center and Honeysuckle Studios. Email kelly@fccgreene.org if you would like to attend this special evening.
The keynote speaker will be Andrew Wood, a well-respected advocate for life and former Executive Director of the Hope Resource Center in Knoxville. He currently serves as the Senior Executive Director of Church Engagement for Care Net, a national network of pregnancy centers.
The Hope Center’s doors remain open to the community every Monday and Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Tuesday and Thursday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
