DIAPER SUNDAY IS MAY 12Twice a year, at Thanksgiving and Mothers' Day, times when we are thankful for our own blessings, the Outreach Committee invites us to express our gratitude by donating diapers for our neighbors. In one year, a typical baby uses about 2400 diapers costing up to $950, an enormous impact on family budgets. Yet Federal safety net programs such as WIC and SNAP don’t cover diapers. Children need regular diaper changes to prevent rashes and infections and to attend child care where they can grow socially and intellectually.
Please bring a pack or box of disposable diapers (any size) or wipes to St. Michael’s on Diaper Sunday, May 12, placing them in the front of the Sanctuary. Alternatively, place a check to St. Michael’s in the collection plate with the memo “Diaper Sunday,” which the Outreach Committee will use to purchase diapers in bulk. Your donations will be shared between Parks Place Diaper Bank in Bellows Falls, the Putney Foodshelf, and Foodworks and Loaves and Fishes in Brattleboro."
