DENVER — HomeAid Colorado, the Colorado chapter of HomeAid America, will collect diapers for babies now through May 15. The diaper drive is part of the annual “Builders for Babies Diaper Drive.” It costs a family about $1,000 per year to buy a supply of average-priced diapers for one child, according to information provided by HomeAid. For someone who works a full-time minimum-wage job, making just over $15,000 a year, $1,000 is a huge expense. “The past four years we’ve averaged collecting over a million diapers each year. In 2021, our goal is to up the ante and secure 1.5 million diapers,” Cindy Bell, executive director of HomeAid Colorado, said in a press release. “While this is a lofty goal, it’s important for our community to rally together and provide the next generation of Coloradans with basic living necessities.”

He says he has only used the term twice throughout his entire life. When describing the culmination of the moment during his final days as chairman of the Onslow/Jacksonville Crime Stoppers Program, Joe Yannessa comedically explained to a crowd of local law enforcement this is now the third time he has said something was "bittersweet". Twenty-one years after he joined the exploratory committee with Naval Criminal Investigative Service that would eventually become Crime Stoppers, Yannessa doesn't know a better way to say how he felt standing in front of the people he has worked closely with during that time. Vice-Chairman Bob Bright has given the program 19 years and beginning in 2021, the two will step down after building one of the most successful programs in the state.
