Battle Ground city employees donate diapers to local diaper bank

Battle Ground — Battle Ground city employees donated 2,008 diapers and 1,400 baby wipes to the Battle Ground Adventist Community Services Diaper Bank in October. The employees held a Diaper Drive after Battle Ground Adventist Community Services Director Maury Parrish spoke at a city council meeting about their services and diaper bank. Deputy City Clerk Tamara Gunter coordinated the drive. The bank provided 4,000 diapers to families in need during October; the greatest need is for diaper sizes 4, 5 and 6. A purple collection bin has been placed in the City Hall lobby to accept future donations.
