Provide Diapers to New Parents

Our Diaper Distribution Volunteers support families in our community by keeping babies happy and healthy! This volunteer role keeps the diaper inventory organized and prepares the correct sizes and quantities of diapers for each family to pick up weekly. By filling the “diaper gap” a family may encounter in a month, Diaper Distribution Volunteers empower families with a hand-up to help them meet their family’s needs within their budget.
