North Campus Seeking Donations For Diaper Drive

February 15, 2023

The ACCESS department at North Campus, 11380 N.W. 27th Ave., is hosting a diaper drive until March 6.

Diapers can be dropped off in Room 6113 Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Friday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

“We want people to know we really do care,” said Elizabeth Potenza, who serves as ACCESS director at North Campus.

Donations will be given to the Continuing Opportunities for Purposeful Education Center North—a facility that offers support for teen parents, such as childcare for children between three weeks to four years old.

For more information about the diaper drive, contact ACCESS advisor Marietta Cappannelli at mcappann@mdc.edu.
