Diaper Drive brings in 45,390 donated diapers

The third annual diaper drive wrapped up over the weekend, and Weyerhaeuser couldn’t be happier with the results.

In total, 45,390 were donated by employees and members of the community.

Public Affairs Manager Wayne Roznowsky says they far surpassed their initial goal of 30,500.

“We’re very, very excited, really happy to get those kind of results, and of course it’s all going to a good cause, and there’s going to be four organizations in the community that are going to get some disposable diapers to provide to people who need them.”

The diapers will be headed to the Salvation Army Food Bank, Odyssey House, The Society for Support to Pregnant and Parenting Teens, and to the Red Cross.

Along with Weyerhaeuser’s employees, major donations came from local fire fighters, Flint, and Costco.
