SEYMOUR - Connecticut Partnership for Children will celebrate its fifth birthday March 5.
In an effort to spread the word about diaper need in the state, the agency's Valley Diaper Bank is hosting the "28 Days of Diapers" throughout the month of February.
There are many ways to get involved in this initiative. Here are some ideas:
1) Run a diaper drive at your agency, business, or school; 2) Ask your staff/employees to dress down in denim on a day this month, in exchange for a $5 donation or a package of diapers or wipes (ask your boss to match any monetary donations); 3) Form your team for the Diaper Dash 5K on May 31, and register now to get the early-bird rate; 4) Inquire about volunteering at our agency; 5) Refer one family, who is in need of services, to our agency; 6) Tell five friends, family members, co-workers, etc. about our mission; 7) Sponsor a child, with a commitment of six months or one year; 8) Like us at Facebook.com/ctpfc or follow us at Twitter.com/ctpfc.
