LCMC Health Tackles Hunger and Diapers | New Orleans News

LCMC Health is launching a powerful new campaign to fight food insecurity and diaper shortages in New Orleans, collecting nonperishable food and diapers from September 1–25 to support Second Harvest Food Bank and the Junior League Diaper Bank. This is the first phase of a broader community initiative from the health system, which already partners with Second Harvest and last year donated $75,000 and 2,600 pounds of food. With nearly half of families struggling to afford diapers and many missing work or school due to lack of access, LCMC is expanding its mission to include sizes 4–6, pull-ups, and wipes. The campaign culminates on September 29 with a free community event at the Broadmoor Food Pantry offering food, flu shots, and blood pressure screenings — all while serving families across eight hospitals in the New Orleans area.
