Launched in August 2019, Social4Good (S4G) educates, engages, and empowers women to make a difference in Northern Virginia. Each month, S4G provides opportunities to learn about critical needs while identifying clear, actionable ways to support those needs with small donations that collectively make a big difference to our local nonprofit partners.
In September, S4G Takes Steps to End Diaper Insecurity
Fairfax Diapers eases the challenge of diaper insecurity and raises awareness of this need in our community. Since its launch in 2019, Fairfax Diapers has distributed over 1.3 million diapers to clients receiving food at Food for Others as well as 10 other local nonprofits. With no overhead or staff, EVERY diaper and dollar donated to Fairfax Diapers provides diapers for families in need! Learn more.
How You Can Support Local Families in Need
Our goal is to raise $5000 for local babies in need by providing monetary and diaper donations to cover one month's diaper distribution, approximately 30,000 diapers.
Make a Financial Donation via Grapevine (preferred). This gives Fairfax Diapers the flexibility to purchase what they need, when they need it, at the best prices. Every $25 donation provides up to 140 diapers.
Purchase Diapers from Amazon Wish List. Please ship to Christine Kenny's Gift Registry Address and indicate on the gift receipt is for Social4Good's campaign so we can track our goal.
