SUMMARY:Gold Coast's 8th Annual Diaper Drive with Nestlings Diaper Bank & Great Start Parent Coalition
DESCRIPTION:Gold Coast Doulas is holding our 8th annual Diaper Drive from September 1st to October 1st\, 2023. Giving back is an important foundation of our business as a Certified B Corporation; clean diapers make a significant impact on the health of new families and our giving focus is on supporting low-income women and children.\n\nOne in two U.S. families with young children struggle to afford diapers and no government programs currently provide them. This rate increased from one in three in past years. Food\, shelter\, and utilities are the only items covered by assistance. Diapers are expensive and many families make tough choices between paying rent and utilities or buying diapers. Research shows that 48% of parents delay changing diapers and 32% report re-using diapers to make supplies last longer.\n\nThe Gold Coast Doulas diaper drive coincides with National Diaper Need Awareness Week\, September 18th – Sept 24th. Diaper Need Awareness Week is an initiative of the National Diaper Bank Network (NDBN)\, created to make a difference in the lives of the nearly 5.2 million babies in the United States aged three or younger who live in poor or low-income families. Our annual diaper drive benefits Nestlings Diaper Bank of West Michigan and Great Start Parent Coalition of Kent County. Holland-based Nestlings has distributed over 2 million diapers and helped over 50\,000 families since 2011. Nestlings Diaper Bank also works with 31 partner agencies to distribute the diapers to the families in need.\n\nOur goal is to collect 10\,000 diapers to support families in need in Kent\, Ottawa\, and Allegan counties to celebrate our 8th anniversary. We collect opened and unopened boxes and packages of new disposable diapers\, used cloth diapers and cloth supplies\, new cloth diapers\, and new boxes or packages of wipes. We need your help to make this happen.\n\nDiaper donations will be accepted from September 1 to October 1st at the following partnered drop-off locations:\nIn Zeeland:\nHoward Miller Library 14 S. Church Street\nLake Michigan Credit Union 8630 E. Main St\n\nIn Holland:\nBrann’s 12234 James Street\nEcoBuns Baby + Co. 11975 E. Lakewood Blvd Suite 6\nThe Insurance Group 593 Heritage Court\nR.

SUMMARY:After Everything (Premiere)
DESCRIPTION:AFTER EVERYTHING\, the fifth and final installment of the worldwide phenomena\, finds Tessa and Hardin living separate lives after Hardin published his revealing book without her knowledge.\n\nAlone in England\, Hardin retreats into drinking and other harmful habits. To make things worse\, he’s suffering from writer’s block and may have to return his sizable advance if he doesn’t finish a new manuscript soon. Rather than give in to his demons\, Hardin starts to realize that the only way to move forward – and have any chance of winning back Tessa – is to right wrongs from his past. He travels to Portugal to visit Natalie\, a woman he once treated terribly. By spending time with Natalie and realizing she has moved on\, Hardin is finally able to forgive himself and envision a bright future with the woman he loves.

SUMMARY:Concerts on the Green - Eli Roe
DESCRIPTION:It’s the final concert of the season – so be sure to come to Beacon Hill for Eli Roe!\n\nEli Roe features a trio of talented musicians who bring together their love for simple instruments with a spirit of creative interpretation. The band says its mission is to “craft acoustic music in a way that just feels right\, like an old pair of blue jeans.” Comfortable with each other\, the trio experiments with arrangements and introduces folk-inspired renditions of all-time favorites. And as spinoff members of the celtic band Paddy’s Cure\, Eli Roe also performs familiar celtic classics.\n\nWe look forward to joining together and making memories at the Concerts on the Green series this summer. Thanks again to the Beacon Hill Foundation’s Celebrating the Arts for establishing and continuing this much-loved series of musical performances.

An infamous tale\, Sweeney Todd\, an unjustly exiled barber\, returns to nineteenth century London\, seeking vengeance against the lecherous judge who framed him and ravaged his young wife.

SUMMARY:Gold Coast's 8th Annual Diaper Drive with Nestlings Diaper Bank & Great Start Parent Coalition
DESCRIPTION:Gold Coast Doulas is holding our 8th annual Diaper Drive from September 1st to October 1st\, 2023. Giving back is an important foundation of our business as a Certified B Corporation; clean diapers make a significant impact on the health of new families and our giving focus is on supporting low-income women and children.\n\nOne in two U.S. families with young children struggle to afford diapers and no government programs currently provide them. This rate increased from one in three in past years. Food\, shelter\, and utilities are the only items covered by assistance. Diapers are expensive and many families make tough choices between paying rent and utilities or buying diapers. Research shows that 48% of parents delay changing diapers and 32% report re-using diapers to make supplies last longer.\n\nThe Gold Coast Doulas diaper drive coincides with National Diaper Need Awareness Week\, September 18th – Sept 24th. Diaper Need Awareness Week is an initiative of the National Diaper Bank Network (NDBN)\, created to make a difference in the lives of the nearly 5.2 million babies in the United States aged three or younger who live in poor or low-income families. Our annual diaper drive benefits Nestlings Diaper Bank of West Michigan and Great Start Parent Coalition of Kent County. Holland-based Nestlings has distributed over 2 million diapers and helped over 50\,000 families since 2011. Nestlings Diaper Bank also works with 31 partner agencies to distribute the diapers to the families in need.\n\nOur goal is to collect 10\,000 diapers to support families in need in Kent\, Ottawa\, and Allegan counties to celebrate our 8th anniversary. We collect opened and unopened boxes and packages of new disposable diapers\, used cloth diapers and cloth supplies\, new cloth diapers\, and new boxes or packages of wipes. We need your help to make this happen.\n\nDiaper donations will be accepted from September 1 to October 1st at the following partnered drop-off locations:\nIn Zeeland:\nHoward Miller Library 14 S.
