“The current government shutdown highlights a very serious challenge for families across our state – there are no publicly funded programs for purchasing diapers, unlike other essentials like food or health insurance.” said Shelly Tucker, Maryland Diaper Bank Founder. “We are committed to providing diapering essentials to families in Maryland and we invite the community to join us by spreading the word and donating diapers through our Amazon Wish List.” [http://a.co/gQVf7fK]
