Every child deserves to start life with dignity and comfort.
Yet for many families in Dutchess and Orange Counties, providing essential items like diapers can be a struggle. United Way of the Dutchess-Orange Region is dedicated to supporting these families in need, and we need your help!
Last year, thanks to the incredible generosity of supporters like you, we collected over 100,000 diapers for families facing financial hardships. However, the need persists and we're reaching out once again for your support.
