This week’s intern spotlight is highlighting our wonderful new intern, Courtney Bell. She has been such a huge help and has a knack for organization. She loves to keep our baby boutique neatly organized and sort through donations. She also has a kind heart and loves to serve our clients. Tomorrow is her birthday and we look forward to celebrating her. Thanks for all you do Courtney! We are so grateful for you!

Referring to our most recent baby shower Courtney had this to say:

“The most meaningful experience for me was seeing how happy the mothers and families were. It was so nice to see everyone come together and celebrate, especially seeing the new babies. It made me feel proud to be part of something so special.”

We have started our second diaper drive of 2025! With your help our spring diaper drive was a success. We have been able to provide our client's with nearly 9,000 diapers just this year!
Did you know that the cost for diapers for one child can exceed $100 per month? Parents who receive financial assistance to feed their families still have to bear the full burden of purchasing diapers for their youngest children.

Please consider acquiring a diaper donation set up from our center (see flyer below), donating diapers, or making a financial contribution at

https://www.midlandsgives.org/organization/theadvocacycentersumter

to help reduce this burden.

Thank you!
