🎉🎂 Hi everyone! My name is Lydia and I created the Diaper Bank on September 5th 2025 – Happy 1st Birthday to us! A whole year of the Diaper Bank! I am so proud of what we have accomplished together. Today is the last day under my leadership. We will be temporarily closing EOD and re-opening in the New Year under our new captain, Jill!

I wanted to make a video message to thank everyone but I can’t without crying (pregnancy lol) so this will have to do.

❤️ To the Donors: You are the backbone of this group and nothing could be accomplished without your immense generosity and efforts. I have been consistently blown away by your selflessness and your kindness – kindness doesn’t even seem like a big enough word honestly. Thank you for the beautiful notes, the encouragement – you have always shown up when I needed you. I felt like I was standing on your shoulders and you never let me down – THANK YOU.

❤️ To my Donation Drop Spots: Most of you didn’t know me before I started the page, so thank you for trusting me – and for being trustworthy too. You have legitimized me and taken away a massive burden I was faced with, collecting all the donations myself, and you have made this last year SO much easier for me to focus on the operations of the Diaper Bank. And I am so so grateful. THANK YOU.

❤️ To my friends and family: Thank you for motivating me, being my sounding board, listening to me vent, and being a soft place to land when people were being mean to me haha! I love you!

❤️ To the Community: The way you cheered me on just put the biggest wind in my sails. Reading your supportive comments, seeing your appreciation and validation was an incredible feeling. You made me feel like this work was truly important and I was making a real difference and I’ve never experienced that before so THANK YOU.

❤️ And lastly, to the people that have used the Diaper Bank: My biggest hope with starting this group was that I might be able to bring some comfort to other parents, other families, other mothers that were struggling… Feeling hopeless or desperate, backed into a corner – and that I could offer some real tangible relief. I hope you feel that I have accomplished that. Thank you for being vulnerable with me… being honest with me… and giving back when you could. I hope you always remember when things get dark, that your resilience during challenging times and your diehard commitment to your babies is so inspiring – and there is a big, beautiful community here that has your back and wants to see you thrive. I appreciate you and I hope the Diaper Bank will be here for you for a LONG time to come!

Happy 1st Birthday to the Halifax Diaper Bank! I hope this next year bring new ideas, fresh energy and lasting impact. I couldn’t be prouder!

Love, Lydia

⭐ 1 WEEK LEFT until TEMPORARY CLOSURE. ⭐
Business as usual until Sept 5th!

From September 6th - 12th the page will remain open as a buffer to answer any questions that may come in - no orders will be fulfilled, and no donations accepted during that time.

As of September 13th, the page will be deactivated. You will no longer be able to search, message or donate.

In early 2027 (official date TBD), our new leader Jill will reactivate the page and we will be officially back in business! You will NOT be required to follow or message a new page. Jill will be answering all messages and fulfilling order requests. :)

🥹 When the daily messages of criticism, disappointment and hostility are feeling loud - I read these messages and remind myself I've done a good job. Thank you to everyone who respects me, appreciates my effort and loves the Diaper Bank!

🔥 CLAIMED🔥 I have 28 Kendamil ready-to-feed bottles that are expiring August 22 and the Omega+ Kirkland powder expiring August 26.

In the interest of fairness, please COMMENT below if you could use either and tomorrow (Saturday) morning I will use a random name picker online. 😊 Thanks everyone!

⭐ 3 WEEKS until TEMP CLOSURE⭐ I have received a massive uptick in requests for help since announcing our temporary hiatus - which I expected & understand. This leads to our stock being stretched pretty thin.

However, I have also had an enormous amount of no-shows - (like 50%). I want to get our items into the hands of those that need them the most. So at this time, if you schedule a pick up and no-show without notice - your order will be unpacked and redistributed to someone else. I used to be quite lenient and give people the benefit of the doubt, hold their items until I heard from them, but this is not sustainable anymore.

I am hopeful this will alleviate our stock shortages and help stretch those resources as far as we can until September 5th!

Thanks everyone,
Lydia
