diaper drive – November 2020
1 in 3 low-income families report experiencing diaper need, and the number of families struggling to meet that basic need for their children is climbing in our community. We’re running a community-wide diaper drive throughout November to help fill this all-important need for struggling families. It’s a cause everyone can get behind.
To do your part, drop off diapers to any of the three locations below, or you can make a gift by texting ANCDIAPER to 41444.
Drop off locations:
- First Presbyterian Church, 616 W. 10th Avenue
- ChangePoint Alaska, 6689 Changepoint Dr.
- St. John United Methodist Church, 1801 O’Malley Rd.
