Diapers aren't a want or a luxury, Mariah Riddlesprigger said. They're a "basic need." "Basic needs shouldn't be such a burden for so many people."

"Not only to support Milwaukee Diaper Mission and raise funds and collect diapers for our benefit but also to shine a light on the issue of diaper need both here locally in Milwaukee and across the county." "Seeing the reach and seeing the hearts of all the people in the community and around the world that contributed was just amazing," Riddlesprigger said. Maverick's Diaper Mission brought in over 30,000 diapers and $38,000, according to Johnson. The all-volunteer organization — located in a 5,000-square-foot Franklin warehouse — distributes the supplies it collects to local service agencies. And hopefully for many more years to come." Those organizations then give the supplies to their clients. "I didn't realize how much of an impact we could make. The BIG Give Back 2022, a diaper and fund drive, will be held through Nov. "Basic needs shouldn't be such a burden for so many people," she said. "Not only were we able to work together last year, but we're doing it again this year. Diapers aren't a want or a luxury, Riddlesprigger said. Now, their diaper drive is becoming an annual event — and it's going on right now.
