New Mexico United has partnered with the Junior League of Albuquerque to address diaper needs in New Mexico. This collaboration aims to raise awareness and support families struggling to afford diapers. Nationwide, half of the families face difficulties in providing enough diapers for their children. In New Mexico, 37% of children under three live in low-income families.
The Junior League of Albuquerque's Diaper Bank has distributed over 20,000 diapers this year to ten local partner organizations. The initiative invites fans and community members to donate new, unopened packs of diapers at the New Mexico United Team Store until October 24th. Donations can also be made during the home match on October 24th or online at jlabq.org/diaper-bank.
"This initiative is part of New Mexico United’s continued commitment to supporting families and building stronger, healthier communities across the state," a statement from New Mexico United reads. "Every diaper makes a difference—and together, we can help ensure that all New Mexico families have the essentials they need."
