Pacific Media Group to hold drive to collect diapers, wipes for local nonprofit

Pacific Media Group’s radio stations KBIG-FM and The Beat Hawai‘i are participating in the Hawai‘i Diaper Bank 25 drives for 2025, with a goal to collect 2,500 diapers.

The radio team will be kicking off National Diaper Need Awareness week, Sept. 15 to 21, by hosting a drive-by diaper drive on Sept. 13 outside of the Hilo Studios, located at 913 Kanoelehua Ave.

Drive starts at 11 a.m. and ends at 2 p.m. The radio team is collecting diapers as well as wipes to help low-income keiki in the community.

Those who donate will be entered to win an overnight stay at the Hilton Waikōloa Village.

Hawai‘i Diaper Bank’s mission is to serve and support the keiki of Hawai`i by providing diapers, wipes and other basic essentials to organizations that assist low-income families with young children.

The nonprofit distributes 30,000 diapers every month, plus wipes, formula, clothes and hygiene products. For more information on Hawai‘i Diaper Bank, click here.
