13th Annual Diaper Drive

This year’s diaper drive will occur Monday, September 23 through Wednesday, October 23, 2024, coinciding with National Diaper Need Awareness Week (September 23 to 27). The diaper drive supports local families by providing diapers, pull-ups, and wipes, which are distributed to families in need through area nonprofits, including longstanding partners Family & Childcare Resources of Northeast Wisconsin and Love Life Ministry.

New this year, Brown County United Way is launching the “Stuff the Bus” initiative, whereby Brown County United Way’s HubCAP vehicles and Community Resource Navigators will be stationed at local stores from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Wednesdays through October 23. HubCAP Community Navigators will collect diaper drive items directly from community members at these designated drop-off points, as well as provide information about local programming, resources, and services.

The first Stuff the Bus opportunity will take place at the De Pere Festival Foods, 1001 Main Avenue, from 10am – 1pm on Wednesday, September 25.
