TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (WTWO/WAWV) — A Terre Haute diaper bank is expanding its services to better serve families in Illinois.
Covered With Love, Inc. Diaper Bank is opening a new satellite location to serve families in the Marshall and Paris area.
Families struggling with diaper needs may schedule appointments to receive disposable diapers, wipes and other baby hygiene items. The appointments will meet at the Paris Carnegie Library. Each parent/guardian will complete an application and must provide two forms of identification for themselves and one form of ID for the child/children.
To schedule an appointment, contact Mindy Myers to (812) 870-2528.
One in three families struggle to provide diapers for their children. Diapers cannot be purchased with SNAP or WIC benefits. There is no government safety net program that provides diapers for babies.
