May Diaper Drive
Project 1:27, the Widows & Orphans ministry at Crossroads, is running a Diaper Drive in the month of May to benefit local DSS offices. DSS has stated that diapers and wipes are a significant need for children in crisis in our community.  There aren't enough state funds to provide for the needs of all the children in the system.  All sizes are needed. All brands will be accepted. Diapers and wipes can be dropped off in bins at the children's check in station.  Contact Ian Headley (ian.headley@gmail.com) or Laurin Headley (laurin@columbiacrossroads.org ) for more information about Project 1:27.
