“We wanted to put this event together so that we could support families with the essentials they need right before the holidays and give back to the community,” Diaper Mission co-founder Meagan Johnson said.
The event was the culmination of this year’s BIG Give Back, the Charles Antetokounmpo Family Foundation’s annual diaper and fund drive benefiting MDM.

“I’m blessed to be able to provide my kids with meals, diapers, and whatever they need,” Riddlesprigger, a member of MDM’s board of directors, told the Journal Sentinel. “I just want to bless other people and help them do the same.” It’s critical to assist others in providing for their families and relieving them of one worry.”
The Milwaukee Diaper Mission campaign is being hosted by Giannis Antetokounmpo and his family.
Businesses like Culver’s and organizations like Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin participated on Sunday.
300 homes needed enough food and pain relief, and 30,000 diapers needed to be supplied.
