A donation of over 2,000 diapers was also received from Jordan Thompson who chose to do a Diaper Drive for her High School Senior Project.  Family Support is grateful for the support it receives from the public to help keep their shelves stocked for those in need.

Thanks to these young people for their hard work and generosity!
