Eastside Baby Corner helps nearly children every week700
Eastside Baby Corner makes a positive difference in the lives of children and families in need. We do this by collecting and purchasing children’s items and distributing them, free of charge, through local social service agencies. We give families help and hope.

About UsEastside Baby Corner (EBC) was founded in 1990 by Karen Ridlon, a local pediatric nurse practitioner who was concerned with the large numbers of babies in her practice that began life without adequate food, clothing, beds or safety equipment.
Her commitment to giving these children a stronger start grew from an idea into an agency that annually distributes almost 60,000 new or gently-used items.
EBC serves a broad area in greater east King County. It is the only agency that provides these unique services in this region.
EBC receives financial support from many of the cities it serves, as well as from private foundations, individuals, businesses, faith-based organizations and civic groups.
