June 18, 2026 – Closing the Second Quarter | Day 4 of 15 Community Diaper Drive Impact One of the highlights of our second quarter was seeing our community come together to support families with young children. Thanks to the generosity of local businesses, churches, organizations, and individual donors, Family Promise of the Chippewa Valley received an estimated 6,000+ diapers and pull-ups, along with wipes, formula, blankets, and other baby care essentials. For families facing housing instability, these items do more than fill a need—they reduce financial stress, free up resources for rent and utilities, and help parents focus on building stability for their children. A special thank you to: • St. James the Greater Church • Altoona Public Library • Festival Foods • Newman Parish • First Presbyterian Church • Concordia Lutheran Church • Hope UMC • United Way of the Greater Chippewa Valley • L.E. Phillips Memorial Public Library • The Coven And to every individual who donated, shared our drive, or helped spread the word—thank you. Because of your support, families in our community received practical help when they needed it most. Together, we create hope. Together, we help families move toward stability. #ClosingTheSecondQuarter #FamilyPromiseCV #CommunityImpact #DiaperDrive #StrongerTogether #BrighterFutures #FamilyPromise

The evening brought together community members, partners, advocates, and supporters to hear powerful stories about housing, homelessness, resilience, and hope. More than a fundraiser, the event created space for meaningful conversations and a deeper understanding of the challenges many families face while working toward stability. The success of this inaugural event reinforced something we already know: when a community comes together, positive change is possible.
