Athens, Ga. — U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff is recognizing Athens Area Diaper Bank Founder Erin Campbell for her leadership with an Official U.S. Senate Commendation.

Working with partner nonprofits, agencies, and organizations in their six-county service area, Ms. Campbell and the Athens Area Diaper Bank work to collect donations and distribute diapers and other supplies to those in need.
