Help Woodside Sanctuary by donating nappies or toweling fabric for profoundly intellectually disabled children and adults

Here's a little more info about this opportunity...

Woodside Sanctuary is currently home to 85 full-time residents, who are profoundly intellectually and physically disabled. Due to their disabilities many of those in our care cannot preform even the most basic of actions without assistance and a vast majority of our residents are incontinent. In order to ensure their dignity and comfort, we provide our residents with nappies which are changed frequently and sometimes as often as five to six times a day. We use both disposable nappies and toweling nappies but prefer to use toweling nappies as they are able to be reused and washed which is more economical and more environmentally friendly. We have to have a large number of toweling nappies available as we can wash up to 1200 nappies per day. We are in need of restocking our nappy supplies and are asking for your help to do so. You can help by: 1) Donating Adult nappies in the sizes medium, large and extra-large. 2) Donating good quality toweling fabric which we can use to replenish our supplies.
