All of October!

We're so excited to be participating in the Little Hands BIG Diaper Drive for the entire month of October, and we need YOUR help!

We're collecting diapers of ALL sizes, including unopened packages, extras your kiddos have outgrown, swim diapers, and wipes, too! Every donation, big or small, makes a difference for families in need.

Donating is EASY! Simply bring your donations to ANY of our FIT4MOM classes throughout October and hand them to your instructor. We'll take care of the rest!

Can't make it to class, but still want to participate? No problem. Simply visit our fundraising page and donate!

Let's come together as a village and show just how BIG an impact our little community can make! 💕
