Fill a (Virtual) Bottle!
How Does it Work?
Baby bottles are distributed to churches, schools, businesses, groups, and individuals from Mother's Day to Father's Day. Bottles can be filled with change, cash, and even checks! Promote it from the pulpit, bible study groups, women’s groups, youth ministry, and your church bulletin. Now, individuals can fill our virtual bottle to bless this ministry!
Most congregations aim to collect bottles by Father's Day, but this is flexible. It's common for members to need an extra week or two due to vacations or other commitments, so some congregations extend their collection period accordingly.
You can drop off bottles, cash, coins, or checks at our administrative office located at 3106 S WS Young, Suite C-301 in Killeen during business hours: Monday-Thursday, 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Additionally, we can arrange for pickups from June 17 to July 8. Simply fill out the baby bottle pickup request form below.
Here are some ways you can help even more
Given our limited manpower for handling and transporting coins, some congregations have their youth group or small group sort coins, cash, and checks into gallon-sized bags before depositing them at the their bank or arranging for pickup. This is a wonderful service opportunity for youth or small groups and is entirely optional. We are deeply thankful for the generous contributions from every congregation!
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Baby Bottle Boomerang?
When you fill baby bottles with cash, checks, or coins, you are helping to provide free life-affirming services, such as pregnancy testing, limited ultrasounds, parenting education, counseling, maternity, and baby supplies.
Our annual Baby Bottle Boomerang Fundraiser also allows us to provide hope and healing to women who have experienced a past abortion or have never heard the Gospel!
I'm in. How do I get involved?There are three ways:
1. Fill our virtual bottle by making an online gift.
2. Ask your Church leadership to announce Baby Bottle Boomerang from the pulpit.
3. Request bottles for your congregation, business, school or small group. Bottles are prepared for pick up or delivery.
What Impact Can One Bottle Make?
Every little bit counts. A bottle full of pennies can provide lifesaving literature or testimonial videos to abortion-minded or abortion-vulnerable women.
-
In 2023, 126 babies were rescued from abortion thanks to prayer, ultrasounds, and resource materials for clients.

A gift of $60 provides an ultrasound that allows a mom to see her baby for the first time and hear his or her heartbeat.
Our prayer is that your congregation or organization will become informed about the sanctity of life and feel they are making an impact on the lives of the people we serve thanks to their generosity.
