During this time of year, when so many are focused on fulfilling children’s wish lists with toys and gifts, it’s easy to forget that many parents are struggling just to provide their children the most basic of needs, including diapers and clothing. The average child uses 7,000 diapers! Thanks to BJ's Wholesale Club located at 1320 Starling Drive in Richmond, Virginia, foster parents and children affiliated with Lutheran Family Services of Virginia will receive 875 greatly needed diapers, wipes, socks and underwear. Pictured at BJ' s are Ruth Zajur of the BJ's Community Relations department and LFSVA staff members (back row from left) Christina Dhir, Hollie Stephens, Maurice Gallimore (peeking from behind the stack of diapers), Ray Ratke and Claire Sutton and (front row from left) Sharae Henderson, Taneika Goldman, Kerbie Gray, and Amy Dyer.
