Nationally, 1 in 3 families report needing diaper assistance—especially families currently facing additional barriers. No one should ever have to choose between diapers and paying their bills or putting food on the table. Donations to the Hamline Midway Diaper, Formula, Hygiene, & Medical Supply Hub Fund helps us source the purchase of diapers, wipes, formula, period products, soap, medical supplies and other essentials as needed for neighbors in need.Located "midway" between Saint Paul and Minneapolis, we are currently partnering with Bethlehem in the Midway as our supply hub. Our mission is to help keep local distribution sites, faith communities, schools, and mutual-aid partners stocked with what families need most.Together, we’re coming alongside many partners in building connected, resilient neighborhoods where community members can meet basic needs with dignity and ease. Thank you for investing in that work. For more information, email info@hamlinemidway.org
