In October alone, we gave away a record breaking 3,900 diapers to over 100 Holyoke children. Each month there is more demand than the last. Even with volunteer help and a donated storage space, our operating budget is likely to exceed $20,000 next year, with $15,000 of that for buying diapers.
Each family can receive 40-80 diapers a month from us which is enough to make a significant impact, and allow them to buy other necessities, like food.
"The Holyoke Collective’s diaper bank has been invaluable in helping our emergency family shelter residents in stretching their limited incomes throughout the month. We are truly grateful to have this resource in the city." -Elizabeth Veillette, CHD
We are one of only 2 free diaper sources in all of Holyoke, and the biggest by far. We need your help to keep this going! Our diaper distribution runs 100% on recurring monthly donations from our community. Your tax-deductible monthly gift will have a tangible impact.
Can we do it? YES WE CAN! VAMOS! $1000 in new monthly donations by Jan 1st.
Much love and appreciation,
Holyoke Food and Equity Collective
