Please No More Wet and Dirty Diapers

Express-O-Of-Love’s Diaper Bank was created by Laria J. Stinson in January 2018. With humble beginning, Laria was compelled to fulfill a need that is often overlooked. In sponsorship with Community Congregational United Church of Christ, Express-O-Of-Love Montgomery’s first established diaper bank began its operation for distribution of diapers and wipes. Volunteering with a Birmingham Diaper Bank program, Laria learned the challenges faced by families and the critical role of a diaper bank program. One major concern is the Negative Correlation between a lack of diapers/wipes and the developmental growth of a child. A child who must wear a wet and dirty diaper for extended time is an unhappy child. Express-O-Of-Love is a non-profit organization designed to show love and passion by making diapers accessible. Diapers and Wipes Pick-ups are every third Wednesday of each month from 1:00PM until 3:00PM. No proof of City residency or income is required. Families must complete in advance the on-line application. Pick-ups for emergency need are available. You can help us address the important issue of diaper need by individual donations, purchasing diapers and wipes, hosting diaper drives or volunteering. Your support is especially important to our mission. For questions or additional information visit us at www.expressooflove.org or call/text 205-538-0062.
