Join Channel 9 for a 9 Diaper Drive collection day on September 28!

One of the biggest expenses any parents of babies will face is buying diapers.

In the Charlotte area, it’s estimated that half of families with kids in diapers struggle to afford those diapers. When parents can’t afford them, it can create a difficult chain reaction.

But there’s a Diaper Bank here in Charlotte that fulfills this critical need. Last year, they distributed 400,000 free diapers, but the need in our community far exceeds that.

So from Sept. 23 to Sept. 28, Channel 9 is collecting diaper donations as part of our 9 Diaper Drive.

On Sept. 28, we’re hosting a collection day. You can drop off diapers to the Channel 9 team from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. We’ll be at two locations:

  • Walmart at 3209 Pineville-Matthews Road, Charlotte
  • Walmart at 2101 Younts Road, Indian Trail
