辛辛那提博物馆中心 and 甜蜜脸颊尿布库 announce partnership

Museum diaper collection site helps address critical health need

辛辛那提- 辛辛那提博物馆中心 (CMC)正在与 甜蜜脸颊尿布库 收集并分发尿布给有需要的家庭. CMC正在外面建立一个收集点 儿童博物馆 where guests can donate diapers that will then be picked up and distributed by 甜蜜脸颊尿布库.

平均, a baby will go through $70-80 worth of diapers per month, 一年加起来超过900美元. Since diapers are not supported by WIC or SNAP programs that support many low-income families, 尿布的成本可能会变得过高, 导致一连串的医疗事故, 对家庭的教育和情感挑战. 没有足够的尿布供应, babies are forced to sit in soiled diapers for longer than appropriate, resulting in diaper rash and staph and urinary tract infections. When parents run out of diapers, they are forced to withdraw their children from childcare. 没有适当的照顾, parents are unable to hold employment that allows them to support their families.

甜蜜脸颊尿布库, a nonprofit diaper bank, was founded in 2015 to address this problem. Since it collected its first diaper, Sweet Cheeks has donated over 36.3 million clean diapers to families in need in Greater Cincinnati.

“We are so excited to partner with 辛辛那提博物馆中心 as a new drop-off location for diapers. We’re grateful to be neighbors with an organization that consistently demonstrates its care for the whole child – mentally, 情感上和身体上. This donation bin is just one more way 辛辛那提博物馆中心 is supporting families, and it will allow us to have an even larger reach in our community.”

CMC is helping Sweet Cheeks advance its mission and raise awareness about the basic health need for diapers. By hosting a diaper collection bin at one of the most-visited museums in the city and home to 儿童博物馆, CMC is hoping to help even more families provide their children with this basic need.

“We are thrilled to support the life-changing work 甜蜜脸颊尿布库 is doing so that, 在一起, 我们可以为社区的教育服务, 生理和心理需求,伊丽莎白·皮尔斯说, 总统 & 辛辛那提博物馆中心首席执行官. “博物馆是社区的支柱, and we have a responsibility to use our platform and our resources to improve the lives and wellbeing of that community.”

客人可以干净地下车, unused diapers at a Sweet Cheeks collection bin located near the entrance to 儿童博物馆 at CMC. Those diapers will then be picked up and distributed to families across Greater Cincinnati.

Just as Sweet Cheeks recognizes the basic health need of diapers, CMC recognizes how important early childhood education and non-traditional learning is for youth development. CMC offers reduced admission at $2 per person through its 全民博物馆 为那些领取SNAP福利的人提供的项目. 以获得降低的入场价格, guests can simply present their EBT or Medicaid card at the box office. 网上赌搏网站十大排行 qfyx100.com/museums-for-all/.
