Upon learning that the United Way’s Diaper Bank supply was running low due to increased need, GUCC made a donation of several cases of diapers and wipes. These items were gratefully received by UW Director, Bonnie Duncan, and UW/YMCA Outreach Coordinator Gabriela Bonnavent.
Bonnie Duncan noted that more seniors than ever are depending on area food banks since the pandemic, and that foodbanks need donations of adult diapers. She also mentioned that food banks are also always in need of feminine hygiene supplies, yet these items often get forgotten.
The United Way maintains an Amazon wishlist of high-priorty items. They also welcome your help in organizing a diaper drive. The Amazon list and resources for organizing a diaper drive can be found on the United Way website.
