The Community Foundation for the Fox Valley Region hosted the 2012 "Dollars for Diapers" Do It! Community Challenge that started on Mother's Day and ended on Father's Day.
With a $30,000 goal, the challenge raised $33,980 which is 13.3% over the expected goal. The proceeds of the campaign will be given to United Way Fox Cities' Diaper Bank that distributes diapers on a regular basis to local agencies.
