The CNY Diaper Bank hosed its monthly drive-up distribution event Saturday.
They've been hosting the events since May.
Saturday's event happened thanks to a donation from Exceullus.
Families had to sign up in advance and the nonprofit tells us more than 800 babies were helped.
Because of the pandemic, the Diaper Bank is seeing more of a need than ever this year, with many families facing a financial crisis.
This year alone, the nonprofit has handed out nearly 2 million diapers.
"We're putting out about 200,000 diapers a month and it's not enough. Families are really hurting and we really encourage people to donate this month and to keep this going into next year because it looks like this is going to be, we're going to be seeing this increased need for a while now," said CNY Diaper Bank manager and director Michela Hugo.
You can head to the Diaper bank's website to donate.
They accept any brands or sizes.
As long as they get the support needed, the nonprofit says these monthly events will continue.
