Hinda Bodinger

Hinda Bodinger founded Berkshire Baby Box in 2016. A year later, it was awarded Massachusetts Nonprofit Network’s 2017 Excellence Award after giving out hundreds of boxes to new and expectant mothers countywide. Hinda estimates another 1,000 boxes will be distributed this year. The goal is to provide newborns with some essentials and a safe sleeping space, and the nonprofit invites new mothers to workshops where they can gain access to valuable skills and resources throughout the Berkshires. Through Berkshire Baby Box, Hinda encourages moms to connect—with one another and with community support.
