UM Diaper Bank: Growing with Grove Grocery
Thanks to You, We've Increased Our Goal!
Support for the UM Diaper Bank and our Ole Miss student parents has been overwhelming! So, we've decided to raise the goal for this important project from $3,500 to $5,000. The new goal is already within reach!
Every dollar makes a difference to student parents struggling to make ends meet. The UM Student Parent Support Fund stocks Grove Grocery, the campus food pantry, with free diapers. For a gift of just $100, you can supply an Ole Miss student with one month of diapers for their baby.
Please make a gift today! If you've already given, please help us spread the word and stock the shelves!

Missing Class, Missing Work
Diapers are so expensive that around 25% of parents miss school or work because of a lack of diapers. Parents who send children to caregivers while they go to work or school must provide their own diapers, and sometimes, the expense is too much. Help alleviate some of that burden with a small gift!
$50
Clean, Dry and Healthy
According to a national study, 50% of all families struggle to afford enough diapers to keep their babies clean, dry and healthy. Waiting to change a soiled diaper can lead to painful rashes and urinary tract infections. Help keep our Ole Miss Family healthy and happy with a donation to the UM Diaper Bank!
$100
Supply One Month of Diapers
Depending on a baby's age, parents can expect to spend at least $100 per month on diapers. For many student parents, that can be a strain on the monthly budget. Your $100 gift supplies one child with a month's worth of diapers. Give now!
$1,500
Supply the First Year
In the first year of life, experts estimate that an infant will use $1,500 worth of diapers. What an amazing gift to have the first year of diapers for an Ole Miss student's child covered by our generous donors! Make a gift to the UM Diaper Bank today for a year's worth of impact and a great start for the smallest members of our Ole Miss Family.
