Last year we had several clients successfully qualify and receive assistance through this program.

Are you in need of Diapers or incontinence products?

The Galveston Diaper Bank distributes on a biweekly basis.

If you or your child are in need, please contact Christin Roe at 409-763-2437 and have your sizes handy!

Some clients reported getting $1,700 - $1,800 towards utilities.

This is a great referral for difficult financial situations as the need is determined based on income.
