The fifth annual pasta dinner to raise funds for a local layette program for mothers in need will be held Feb. 16.

Pasta With a Purpose will be held from 5:30 to 7 p.m. in the fellowship hall of the First Congregational United Church of Christ.

For 25 years, the Women’s Fellowship of the church has made layettes for DeKalb County women who cannot afford clothing, diapers and bedding for their newborns. Each layette includes a blanket, sweater, diapers, pajamas, soap and clothing items, many of which have been homemade by members of the church and community.
