To support families during the holiday season, State Representative Ryan Spain is spearheading his annual Holiday Diaper Drive. Spain emphasizes the critical need for diapers, wipes, and diaper cream, items not covered by programs like WIC and SNAP. With nearly half of U.S. families struggling to afford diapers, the drive aims to alleviate some pressure from local food pantries, which often face shortages of these essential items. Community members can contribute to the drive by delivering donations to Spain's Peoria office or sending items through an Amazon wish list until December 11. This initiative provides much-needed relief to families, ensuring they too can enjoy the holiday cheer.

Donations may be delivered in person or shipped directly to Rep. Spain’s Peoria office. Donations may also be made using the Amazon wish list. www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2VE8NAZEOWJR7?ref_=wl_share.
