JAMESTOWN, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – The South Central Homeless Coalition will be hosting their 3rd annual diaper drive for Region VI July 16th through August 17th.

“We are accepting donations of the supplies themselves or monetary donations to purchase these items,” stated Great Plains Housing Authority Deputy Director Cassie DuBray. “Regional participation, items and dollars donated at the collection sites will be able to stay in those communities within our region.”

Last year, over $5,300 in donations from the drive was awarded to sites all around Region VI including Salvation Army and Region VI Community Action in Stutsman County, Gackle Area Food Pantry, and county Social Services offices in Logan, LaMoure, Barnes, Dickey and Foster/Eddy/Wells.

“The goal this year is to raise at least $5,000 worth of donations, diapers and wipes again. Please help us WIPE OUT area diaper need in 2018 by donating diapers and wipes or funds to purchase them.”
