Kent Station is at 417 Ramsay Way. Diapers also can be dropped off on the first floor of Kent City Hall, 220 Fourth Ave. S., during city business hours.<\/p>\n<p>Diapers will be distributed to numerous South King County agencies, including several in Kent, DAWN Domestic Violence Shelter, Children&rsquo;s Home Society, Iraqi Community Center and Apartment Life\/We Love Kent.<\/p>\n<p>Government assistance safety net programs do not pay for diapers and wipes, so the March of Diapers uses the month of March to collect diapers &amp; wipes to meet a desperate need for baby sanitary products that would otherwise not be met, according to Do the Right Thing. Disposable diapers cost up to $85 -$125 per month per baby.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kiwanis Club of Kent, Kent Station, city of Kent lead effort <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":212,"featured_media":55575,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9,4],"tags":[],"yst_prominent_words":[],"class_list":["post-55574","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-home","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55574"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/212"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=55574"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55574\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/55575"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=55574"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=55574"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=55574"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=55574"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
