In addition to HomeAid's core mission of helping provide safe, dignified housing through our unique relationship with the home building industry, we also work to promote awareness and community engagement to help those who need a hand. For the last 3 years, HomeAid Utah has hosted a Diaper Drive to support the Utah Diaper Bank. Each year we have proudly been named their largest annual donor, with each year’s donations surpassing the previous year. We had an ambitious goal of 500,000 diapers for 2022 and exceeded our goal by over 12,000 diapers!
Diapers are NOT covered by government safety net programs and can be a major financial strain for families experiencing homelessness or housing instability. The Diaper Bank works with a network of reputable service providers to make sure diapers are distributed to our most vulnerable friends and neighbors. This year's totals: 512,526 Diapers 84,784 Wipes 2,062 oz of Formula.
