Soroptimist International of Davis and the Davis Girl Scouts are working together in May to support two local nonprofits: Yolo Diaper Bank and Davis PERIOD.
An estimated one in three families in Yolo County is struggling to pay for diapers for their children. The Yolo Diaper Bank collects and purchases diapers and wipes for distribution through partner agencies serving needy families. It accepts open and unopened packages. The diaper sizes most in demand are 2, 5, 6, 7 and training pants (pull-ups), but all sizes are welcome.
Davis PERIOD is a UC Davis-based chapter of a national youth-powered organization. It focuses on breaking the stigma around, celebrating and working for access to menstrual health. The UCD chapter works with local distribution partners to provide supplies to communities in need. Pads and tampons of any brand are accepted.
Donations will be collected between May 15 and June 1 at two drop-off sites: Avid & Co. Toys, 605 Second St. in downtown Davis, and Strelitzia Flower Company, 4614 Second St., Suite 1, in Davis (across from Target). For more information, contact Lori Hansen at lmhansengs@gmail.com.
