Connecticut Partnership for Children announces the “3rd Annual 28 Days of Diapers And One to LEAP ON” Initiative for February.
The annual month-long diaper need initiative is an opportunity for community members from all areas of the state to rally their friends, co-workers, business connections, sports teams, school groups, scouts, and any other group that is willing to be part of this effort.
The agency is more than happy to provide marketing materials or participants can make their own.
Our goal for 2016 is to bring in more than 5,000 diapers. At this time, we are in desperate need of sizes 4, 5, and 6.
Here are some ideas of how you can get involved:
- Run a simple box drive in the lobby of your workplace. Invite everyone who comes to a local sports event to bring along diapers and wipes as part of the price of admission.
- Go denim for diapers – employees donate diapers, wipes, or gift cards in exchange for dressing down.
- Throw a party and ask guests to bring diapers!
- Participate in the Hogs’n’Curds event at Colonial Tavern on February 25, 2016 (For more info, call 203 – 881-1804 or e‑mail [email protected]). Proceeds from this event go directly to our agency.
- Form your team for The Diaper Dash 5K, Kids Fun Run, and Crib Crawl Team Challenge on June 11, 2016 in Seymour, CT.
- Or you can simply make a donation of diapers, wipes, and/or store gift cards.
However you want to participate is much appreciated!
