The Bottoms Up for Babies event, held on Feb. 21 at the Caribbean Club in Key Largo, successfully collected diapers and cash donations equivalent to more than 2,000 diapers for the Florida Keys Healthy Start Coalition’s 2025 Diaper Drive.
Sponsored by members of the Upper Keys League of Women Voters and Upper Keys Women for Democracy, the event also gathered essential baby items for the S.O.S. Food Pantry at St. Justin’s Church.
The Florida Keys Healthy Start Coalition serves families before, during and after pregnancy, helping more than 75% of babies born in Monroe County each year. With an annual need exceeding 120,000 diapers, the organization relies on community support.
The 2025 Diaper Drive continues until the end of February. Those wishing to contribute may drop off diapers at designated locations. More information is at www.keyshealthystart.org.
