The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated longstanding health, economic, and racial inequities. Since then, the need for coordinated access to essential supplies, like diapers, has only increased. That’s why SupplyBank.org (SBO) and First 5 Alameda County (First 5) through its Neighborhoods Ready for School (NRFS) initiative partnered to
identify local community-based organizations that could serve as distribution partners in SBO’s Diaper Kit program, which distributes essential diapers and diaper wipes to families in need.
