He says people have to sometimes make the choice between buying food or diapers. He says they’ve heard stories of parents without access to clean diapers having to reuse disposable diapers.
Tessier says many people have leftover diapers from their own kids that they can donate.
He says if you have a child that has outgrown one size of diaper into another size, they’ll gladly take the leftovers.
Donations can be dropped off at their location on Lemarchant Road, or by contacting WaterWerks by email at steve@waterwerks.agency or by phone at 738-5090.
