A huge shout out to everyone who donated new and open packs of diapers during our recent diaper drive!!
As a partner agency with Junior League of Baton Rouge's Diaper Bank, our goal was to collect 1000 diapers. Thanks to YOUR generous donations, we collected 2961 diapers, almost triple our goal!!!
These diapers will be distributed to families experiencing diaper need through Lane Pediatrics.
Did you know?:
- 1 in 2 families struggle to afford diapers
- Diapers cannot be obtained through WIC or SNAP
- Children who stay in dirty diapers have an increased chance of diaper rash, viral illnesses, and urinary tract infections
- Most childcare centers require a day’s supply of disposable diapers
The Junior League of Baton Rouge’s Diaper Bank distributes almost 500,000 diapers every year through partner agencies such as Lane Pediatrics.
