OUR COMMUNITY DIAPER BANK DISTRIBUTED FREE DIAPERS TO LOW-INCOME FAMILIES THROUGH THE FOOD PANTRY AND PARTNERSHIPS WITH LOCAL RESOURCES SUCH AS HEADSTART. NEARLY 29,000 DIAPERS WERE DISTRIBUTED TO CHILDREN AND ADULTS IN NEED. DUE TO INCREASES IN HOUSING AND GROCERY COSTS, AS WELL AS ENERGY PRICES, WE HAVE SEEN OVER A 30% INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF FOOD REQUESTS VERSUS 2022. WE PARTNERED ONCE AGAIN WITH LOCAL FARMERS PROVIDING HUNDREDS OF FARM-FRESH PRODUCTS TO OUR FAMILIES RIGHT THROUGH THE FALL.

IN ADDITION, PAYMENTS TO UTILITY VENDORS ARE MADE FOR HELP WITH ELECTRICITY, GAS, AND WATER TO PREVENT DISCONNECTION AND PAYMENTS TO HEATING FUEL VENDORS TO PROVIDE HEAT AND/OR HOT WATER FOR HOUSEHOLDS WHO HAVE EXHAUSTED ALL OTHER BENEFITS AND RESOURCES FOR FUEL ASSISTANCE. URGENT MEDICAL NEEDS ARE ALSO ADDRESSED THROUGH THIS PROGRAM AND FAMILIES IN NEED ARE ASSISTED WITH EMERGENCY DENTAL/EYE CARE, MEDICATION, AND NEEDED MEDICAL SERVICES AND EQUIPMENT. WE SUSPENDED OUR AUTO-REPAIR ASSISTANCE AS THE COSTS WERE OFTEN BEYOND OUR SCOPE AND DECIDED TO REFOCUS ON SHELTER AS OUR PRIMARY EMERGENCY FINANCIAL SUPPORT SERVICE.
