The SHOL Collaborative and the Society of St. Vincent de Paul is holding a diaper drive that ends this weekend, May 4-5. Collection areas are at Sacred Heart only in the upper church and in the lower church hallway, before and after Masses those weekends only (Apr 27-28, May 4-5).
We are collecting diapers size NB-7, to benefit a city-wide diaper distribution organized by Newton Neighbors. Open boxes are accepted, but please be sure to bring diapers in labeled plastic sleeves or bags. The donated diapers will benefit families in Newton and beyond who are facing economic insecurity and struggling to afford diapers for their children.
If you can’t get to a store to buy diapers, you can purchase them online and have them shipped to Newton Neighbors. Click the following URL to purchse online:
If you are interested in helping deliver the diapers from Sacred Heart to Newton Neighbors this week of May 6, please email [email protected]. Thank you for your support of this drive and the families in need that it serves!
