DIAPER DRIVE THROUGH (FATHER'S DAY) - Collection deadline: June 15th
Did you know WIC and SNAP do not allow for baby diaper and wipe purchases? Many mothers and babies are food and housing insecure. Add to that the cost of diapers and wipes? Imagine choosing between food and diapers? Or missing a shift at work because you have no diapers for daycare?
Homeaid's Builders for Babies is here to help through their goal of collecting 1 million diapers for families in our region. There will be two diaper collection boxes at OUMC to receive your donations. To sweeten the pot, put your name on the diapers/wipes and I am doing a drawing for a $50 gift card to all who donate!

Join us on the ultimate Alaskan adventure where the northern lights shine over majestic mountains, racing rivers, and sparkling glaciers. As we trek the tundra, we’ll discover how easy it is to lose sight of what's true in our wild world today.
