MADISON, Wis. — The Village Diaper Bank’s annual Bottoms Up Ball raised more than $174,000 Friday night, bringing hundreds of supporters to the Edgewater Hotel to support the organization’s work addressing diaper needs in the community. The fundraiser comes as many families face difficulty paying for diapers. The event’s organizers cited an estimate that one in two U.S. families struggles to afford them. The gala brings the community together each year to raise money for the diaper bank. Further details about how the proceeds will be used were not provided.
