Catholic Charities (CCANO) is holding a drive-thru diaper drive to help fill our diaper bank. Clients of CCANO are able to access diapers and other baby basics from this diaper bank, and the need has increased exponentially over the past few weeks, with many people being out of work.
Bring donations to our location at 2505 Maine Ave in Metairie on Wednesday, April 8th, between the hours of 10 - 2. Please put items in your trunk and remain in your car. Staff will be on hand to unload for you, no need for you to exit the car.
Items being accepted:
Diapers - highest need! sizes 4,5,6 are in especially high demand
Wipes
Baby powder
Diaper rash cream
Baby shampoo
Again, please have items in trunk so we can help flatten the curve of COVID while still assisting those in need in our area.
Thank you!!!
