An NBC26 Diaper Drive on Monday, March 6 to help replace diapers stolen from the United Way Fox Cities is wrapped up, and we're thankful for all the donations!
Sometime between January 3 and February 13, 100,000 donated diapers were stolen from the Fox Cities Diaper Bank.
Since then, the Fox Cities Diaper Bank has received a donation of 100,000 diapers from Kimberly-Clark through the Huggies "No Baby Unhugged" program, and an additional 100,000 from Amazon.
Huggies is also partnering with NBC26 and will match up to 50,000 donated diapers in the NBC26 Diaper Drive.
Shopko is also donating $1,000.
"So, we're giving [the Diaper Bank] $1,000, and we hope that it makes a big impact on the diapers that went missing," says Michelle Hansen of the Shopko Foundation.
United Way Fox Cities leaders say they've easily more than doubled the amount of diapers stolen through donations since last week.
