We would like to thank the Pfizer Groton CT Drug Product Design and Supply Equity Team for a very successful diaper drive that they held for us. The team collected diapers from September 14th through October 2nd and collected over 3,000 diapers. This will greatly help support our Diaper Bank program.

Bring your child, your car seat, and your questions. We'll handle the rest. 💙
