The City of Rancho Santa Margarita is seeking donations
of diapers in all sizes to help pamper the mommies-to-be of the City’s adopted
2nd Battalion, 5th Marines. There are over 1,000 military
families living on base at Camp Pendleton
– and we want to let them know that the many sacrifices of both the families and service members are appreciated.
Diapers and
baby wipes are expensive, costing up to $70 to $80 per month per baby. On
average a baby needs 6 to 10 diapers a day to
stay fresh and healthy. As a community, we would like to show our support to
the new and expectant mommies and thank them for the sacrifices they make as a
military spouse.
Donations
may be dropped off at the Bell Tower Regional Community Center during regular
business hours; Monday through Thursday 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and Friday 8:00
a.m. to 6:00 p.m. until Friday, February 24, 2017.
For more information, please contact Wendi Redington, Community
Services Supervisor at (949) 216-9700 x 1260, wredington@cityofrsm.org.
