\"54Now, more than ever, we need volunteers.<\/h2>\n

Over half of all diaper bank programs rely entirely on volunteer activity.\u00a0Diaper banks<\/a> in the National Diaper Bank Network come in many different sizes – but regardless of size, they can always use a helping hand. Spending a few hours sorting, packing or wrapping diapers and other basic need items can make a huge difference for your local program and the families they serve.<\/p>\n

Get creative!<\/h3>\n

There are so many ways you can volunteer your time and expertise to a diaper bank. Got a knack for graphic design? Create some flyers for an upcoming diaper drive or update their logo. Social media savvy? Help your local program get the attention it deserves online by creating or updating their social media channels. Good with numbers? We have volunteers who have offered their accounting services to programs in need as well.<\/p>\n

Hosting diaper wrapping events or diaper drives<\/a> are also great options for work related team building exercises.<\/p>\n
