Hunterdon Hygiene Connection Drive
Please consider donating!
The Hunterdon Hygiene Connection is a partnership with the United Way of Hunterdon County and food pantries and agencies throughout the county, established to help ease some of the financial stress our neighbors experience. They provide free diapers and baby supplies such as wipes and lotions, period products, and incontinence supplies. Compassionate Beginnings Doula & Birth Services is sponsoring a Hygiene product drive from now through the month of April.
Drop off locations are located at:
- The CBD&BS office, products can be dropped off conveniently if you have a scheduled appointment
90 Beaver Avenue, Ste 304 (second floor) Clinton, NJ 08809
The Flemington Stangl Market - Croton Co-Op Stand located in the back of the building. Held every Saturday.
Some Overall Facts and Why this is important to us:
One in three families struggle to afford diapers for their infants and toddlers. It costs about $1,000 for a 1-year supply of diapers for one child. For someone who works a full-time minimum wage job, or families with more than one child in diapers, this is a major expense.
There is an increased need to provide period products to individuals in our community who cannot afford or struggle to access these supplies. This is also known as Period Poverty, and the results often lead to missed days of school and/or work.
The monthly cost of adult incontinence products exceeds $300 per month, which is a significant cost for adults with disabilities and our elderly neighbors. More than 2,000 senior households in Hunterdon County earn under $25,000 annually, and the monthly cost of incontinence products is often beyond their reach.
