A family can spend an average of $100 a month on diapers for one child, and that’s only one of the many things a growing baby needs. Diapers can be a huge expense for families living on a tight budget, which is why Gold Coast Doulas is hosting their 9th annual Diaper Drive.
The goal is to collect 15,000 diapers to support families in need in Kent, Ottawa, and Allegan Counties. They will accept donations of opened and unopened boxes and packages of new disposable diapers, used cloth diapers and cloth supplies, new cloth diapers, and new boxes or packages of wipes.
Diapers will be collected now through October 1, and can be dropped off at the following locations:
Zeeland:
Howard Miller Library
Lake Michigan Credit Union
Holland:
Brann’s
EcoBuns Baby + Co.
The Insurance Group
R Lucas Scott. Co.
Harbor Health & Massage
Lake Michigan Credit Union
Greater Grand Rapids:
Rise Wellness Chiropractic PLC
Hopscotch Children’s Store
Mind Body Baby Collective
Advent Physical Therapy
Mindful Counseling GR: Three locations
Fit4Mom Grand Rapids: Donations accepted at classes.
Gold Coast Doulas: Donations are accepted at classes or left outside the door of the office.
All donations will then be distributed to Nestlings | Diaper Bank of West Michigan and Great Start Family Coalition of Kent County.
