I just started for a battered woman's shelter and was absolutely horrified at the carseats they are using in the vans! Two expired bucket seats, one which was missing the straps and was just being secured with a seatbelt (yes! they actually put kids in this one - or so I am told) I am donating my bucket seat to the shelter and am trying to raise enough money to get them at least one convertible and 1-2 high back boosters.
They have 3-4 low-back boosters that are in awful condition and being used by 2 and 3 year olds!!!! The van has lap belts in each center seat and then lap and none of the seats have headrests. (I did notice tether anchors behind each row) Could someone lead me in the right direction for an inexpensive convertible and also an inexpensivie booster seat? Are there any organizations that might do donations? These kids have been through enough - just want to make sure that they are as safe as they can be while being transported in our (the shelter's) vehicles (and hopefully educate the mothers at the same time).
Sorry this is long! TIA!!!
