CoxHealth's 13th Annual Diaper Drive to begin on April 1

Nearly 50 percent of families are not able to provide clean diapers for their baby. This year’s efforts to help with this concern start April 1, with the launch of CoxHealth’s annual Diaper Drive. The drive, now in its thirteenth year, sends supplies to charities throughout the region.

Please join us in donating disposable or cloth diapers in any size or brand. Open packages are accepted as well.

Diapers will be given to Diaper Bank of the Ozarks in Springfield, Elevate Branson, Monett Community Kitchen, and Katie's House-Pregnancy & Family Resource Center, and Barton County Health Department. The organizations will then distribute the diapers to local families in need.
