NEW HAVEN, Conn. , Sept. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — The National Diaper Banking Network (NDBN) is releasing data on COVID vaccines in hard-to-reach neighborhoods as a member of the U. S. Department of Health and Human Services network. We can do this campaign. This effort comes as NDBN members have already increased the volume of diapers, menstrual materials and other critical must-have items they are offering by 86% in reaction to the pandemic.

“When we heard about the We Can Do This campaign, we knew we had to come together,” said NDBN Executive Director Joanne Samuel Goldblum.

For Northern Virginia Diaper Bank program director Susan Mullen, freeing communities from the disease is familiar. Andes to get a smallpox vaccine in remote villages.

Today, Mullen is helping to organize a flexible vaccination clinic and is leading an effort to get accurate data on COVID-19 vaccines for youth in the network he serves.

The NDBN got involved in We Can Do This in part because COVID vaccines are now for children from six months of age, and it is imperative to provide information to families with young children.

“The history of Susan’s circle of relatives shows that smart fitness happens on the ground, where other people live,” said NDBN board chair Amy Daly Donovan. “That’s why the We Can Do This crusade has partnered with organizations that already provide important services, such as NDBN Whether it’s putting vaccination information on diaper packs or hosting events where other people can receive vaccines and check kits, fundamental wish banks are doing things that simply couldn’t be done by other people who lack roots in the community. “

“The NDBN makes diapers and menstrual materials because those things are imperative for fitness and for fully participating in life,” said NDBN Executive Director Joanne Samuel Goldblum. “It’s outrageous that one in three families can’t change their children’s diapers. “It’s also outrageous that things like web access, insurance, or immigration prestige can prevent a circle of family members from getting the fitness data they need. When we heard about the We Can do this campaign, we knew we had to come together. “

In addition to NDBN and its Alliance for Period Supplies, the We Can Do This crusade has relied on teams from networks such as AARP, the American Red Cross, Feeding America, Meals on Wheels, and the National Parent-Teacher Association to disseminate accurate data on COVID vaccines. The American Academy of Pediatrics and other leading fitness care teams have provided speaking experts on occasion across the country.

“More than a hundred key wish member banks have committed to providing data on COVID-19 vaccination in their communities,” Goldblum said. basic. “

“You do what you can, when you can, you can”

Susan Mullen was 18 months old when her parents, Burt and Dorothy Keppler, who were nurses, arrived in Bolivia for a medical project with the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Later, Burt earned a medical degree. Half a year in Bolivia, he performed medical examinations on schoolchildren, extracted molars and treated ailments. It has also administered vaccines, adding the smallpox vaccine, as a component of the global effort to eliminate the disease.

“You do what you can, when you can, where you can,” said Mullen, his father, who died in 2008. The effort to eliminate smallpox was huge, but the service of other people like Kepplers around the world was important. for this. Whether cruising the rivers on a raft loaded with vaccines or driving down narrow roads along the cliffs, Keppler did what he could.

Mullen said his own life was formed through his parents’ example of service. The circle of relatives left Bolivia when they were just six years old, after their father fell ill with hepatitis A. But his travels continued, with his parents serving communities in Mexico. , Ukraine and many other destinations. Mullen’s idea of his father during the We Can Do This campaign. “My dad would just roll up his sleeves and would like to come here and help. “
