In Central Oregon, approximately one-third of families receive assistance, which helps cover basic needs but often includes limitations on hygiene supplies. Families are generally provided one pack of baby wipes per month, regardless of household size. To help address this need, local Kiwanis clubs are hosting a baby wipe drive benefiting Central Oregon Baby Resources and throwing in a friendly competition “Battle of the Buns” to see which club collects the most wipes.  Of course, it is the babies that will win. The goal is 500 packs of baby wipes. The collection runs from 2/11/26-2/28/26. Donations will be distributed by COBR to its partner organizations throughout the Tri-County area, supporting families with young children.
