Free Diaper and Supply Distribution Event Scheduled in Lakewood
Wellpoint New Jersey will be distributing free diapers and other essential supplies to local families on Thursday, March 19, beginning at 10:00 a.m. at its Lakewood storefront.
The event will take place at the Wellpoint location at 100 Clifton Avenue, where attendees will be able to receive diapers, wipes, and additional baby-related items while supplies last. Organizers say the distribution will also include access to other health necessities, vaccinations, and food assistance.
The initiative is part of a broader national pilot program launched by the National Diaper Bank Network in partnership with Elevance Health, Wellpoint’s parent company. The program aims to provide diapers and essential supplies to thousands of families across the country throughout 2026.
Officials encourage residents in need to arrive early, as supplies will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis.
