Did you know? According to data from The National Diaper Bank Network’s Diaper Check for 2023, 1 in 2 U.S. #families struggle to afford enough #diapers to keep their little ones clean, dry, and healthy. That’s why Tzu Chi volunteers launched recurring diaper and grocery distribution events for families in need of care. 🤝 With rising costs, many households must choose between day-to-day expenses and necessities – such as food, clothing, or diapers. With your help, we can bring relief to more parents and children across the communities we serve. Learn more and join us at our 2024 #CharityConcert this October: https://lnkd.in/djnbgb7G.  When?  📅 Saturday, October 12, and Sunday, October 13, from 2:00 PM to 4:30 PM   Where?  📍 Tzu Chi USA Headquarters’ Gratitude Hall in San Dimas, California. #Fundraiser #NonProfits #MakeADifference #Event

Families receiving diapers from Little Essentials were interviewed as part of a larger, national study of the economic impact of diaper banks. The study found that when families receive diapers, more families are able to work or attend school, health care spending is reduced, and children are healthier. Little Essentials provides diapers at no cost to families experiencing diaper need: the inability to provide a sufficient supply of diapers to keep a baby clean, dry, and healthy. According to The NDBN Diaper Check 2023, 1 in 2 families struggles to afford diapers. With the help of our donors we can help families achieve self-sufficiency.

"48 Hours" can be the difference between a life of heartache and a life of hope. Alone, scared, hungry, out of money, and often without an I.D – newly homeless and at-risk youth will make bad decisions that they can’t take back... unless our Street Outreach volunteers find them first. For the month of April, they will work harder than ever to hit known hotspots (under bridges, bus stations, city parks) to distribute sleeping bags, clothing, food packs, and hygiene products and connect these kids with emergency housing, outreach centers and vital resources and referrals. We want them to know they have options, that there is a way out, and there are caring adults who believe in them – so they can move forward with hope. Need help or know a youth who does?

𝐂𝐚𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩 𝐮𝐬? The escalating cost of living is casting a detrimental effect on Stoke & Newcastle. As household bills and food expenses steadily climb, household incomes fail to keep pace. Economic hardship is increasingly prevalent, particularly among the most vulnerable members of our communities. Recent statistics reveal a concerning reality – seven of Staffordshire's most economically disadvantaged neighbourhoods are located in Stoke-on-Trent. Among them, Hanley & Etruria stands out with the lowest disposable household income across the entire county.

📢 Support Urgently Needed as Back-to-School Costs Soar in Donegal 📢 As the back-to-school season approaches, families across Donegal are feeling the intense pressure of rising education-related expenses. To help ease this burden, the Donegal Food Response Network, supported by the Donegal Local Development Company (DLDC), has urgently launched a back-to-school appeal for donations to support local community groups and the families most affected by these financial pressures. 🌟 How You Can Help: The Donegal Food Response Network, made up of 21 community organisations across the county, is asking for your support through donations of food, school supplies, vouchers, and cash. These contributions will be distributed to local families struggling to make ends meet during this challenging time. 📉 Shelves Are Bare: As the demand for assistance has skyrocketed, community groups that typically maintain emergency supplies are finding their shelves increasingly bare, leaving many families needing more support. 📍 Find Your Nearest Food Bank: To support your community, visit www.donegalfoodresponse.ie to find details of your nearest food bank. Donations of food, school supplies, or cash can be made directly to these local food banks. 💻 Donate Online: For those unable to visit in person, donations can also be made online through the iDonate pages of individual community groups. Links to these pages are available on www.donegalfoodresponse.ie making it easy for anyone to contribute, no matter where they are. 💙 #BackToSchoolSupport #DonegalCommunity #DonateNow #supportlocalfamilies #WeCareFoodBank #CaraHouseFamilyResourceCentre #CFFAM #ÁrainnMhór #RossesCDP #TheDoorwayProject #PreSchoolAndAfterSchoolChildcare #FamilyResourceCentreRaphoe #CloughaneelyFoodBank #InishowenDevelopmentPartnership #TheMustardSeed #DFRC #Donegal #SpraoiAgusSpórt #FinnValleyFRC #ClonmanyCommunityCentre #AnMachaireLeChéile
