Samuel Ward's DIAPER DRIVE Eagle Project

Please donate diapers for Samuel's Eagle Project!


Hi, my name is Samuel and I am working on my Eagle Scout Service Project. I am leading a group of volunteers in a Diaper Drive to help families in need who can not afford to purchase diapers for their babies. 100% of the diapers, wipes and monetary donations will go to help babies so that they do not have rashes or get severe infections. My beneficiary is The Diaper Bank of Minnesota (501c3), which has a mission of helping to educate the community about the need for diapers for low-income families and collecting diapers for families in need. 

All new and opened diaper packages, wipes, and cash/checks are accepted. Please make checks out to The Diaper Bank of MN. The diaper sizes most in demand are sizes 3, 4, 5 and pull-ups. If you can not make it to one of the 3 drop off sites (listed below) or you live out of the area and still want to help me with my project, you can send donations through my Amazon Baby Registry! https://www.amazon.com/baby-reg/samuelward-eagleprojectdiaperdrive-may-2019-linolakes/QISBIAU88UO2?ref=cm_sw_em_r_px_MOBILE_H67JB1gE2PniE . If none of these options work feel free to email me at SamuelWardEagle@gmail.com and I will arrange a time to pick up any local area donations.
