Discovery Federal Credit Union proudly announces its successful diaper drive to support the families residing at Opportunity House, a local nonprofit dedicated to providing shelter and resources to individuals and families in need. Through the generosity of Discovery’s members, the credit union was able to collect and donate an essential supply of diapers in sizes 4, 5, and 6, helping meet the immediate needs of families at the Eckert House, one of Opportunity House's facilities.
Opportunity House, which offers temporary housing to individuals and families facing homelessness, had reached out to the community for help with diaper donations for their youngest residents. The credit union’s members answered the call with remarkable enthusiasm, making the drive a success.
“We are proud to be able to support Opportunity House and their mission to assist those in need. Diapers are an essential, yet often overlooked, need for families staying in temporary housing,” said Michele Smith, President/CEO of Discovery Federal Credit Union. “We are thrilled to have been part of this effort, thanks to the outpouring of support from our members who made this donation possible.”
The donated diapers will be distributed to families in need at the Eckert House, providing relief to parents who might otherwise struggle with the expense of these everyday necessities. Staff at Opportunity House expressed their deep gratitude for the community’s support.
“The donation from Discovery Federal Credit Union will make a real difference for the families in our care,” said Kris Batista, Development Specialist at Opportunity House. “We are so thankful for the generosity shown by Discovery’s members, and we are excited to be able to provide these essential supplies to families who need them most.”
This successful diaper drive is part of Discovery Federal Credit Union’s ongoing commitment to community outreach and support for local organizations. The credit union plans to continue its efforts to help those in need, ensuring that families in the area have the resources they require to thrive.
