Lakefront Brewery: Milwaukee Diaper Mission returns to Lakefront Brewery for their fourth annual diaper drive

Lakefront will once again offer gift card credit in exchange for much-needed community health supplies.

MILWAUKEE (FEBRUARY 10th, 2026) – After a series of successful diaper and period supply drives, Lakefront Brewery and Milwaukee Diaper Mission’s partnership charges forward. Lakefront welcomes MDM back to their Beer Hall for another diaper drive on Sunday, February 22nd from 11a.m.-4p.m., and they’re rallying for even more donations than their record-breaking 2025 drive.

Lakefront and MDM have been working together since 2023 to help supply our community with these often-overlooked essentials. MDM works with local social service agencies to provide a reliable source of crucial period and baby needs, items that should never be considered luxuries. Currently, Milwaukee Diaper Mission is serving an average of 3,500 babies per month with diapers, wipes, and training pants.

“We’ve seen a sharp increase in requests for support over the past several months,” says Meagan Johnson, Founder and Executive Director of Milwaukee Diaper Mission. “Recent grocery store closures and the ongoing FoodShare crisis have intensified the needs we’re seeing across our communities. Drives like the one at Lakefront are a great way to make supporting our mission easy.”

One in two families in the U.S. lack the funds to keep up with their diaper needs, a staggering amount that shows little signs of slowing. Make a direct impact on Sunday, February 22nd by bringing in as many unopened, fully packaged, disposable diapers as you can to Lakefront Brewery and you’ll receive Lakefront cash in return. For every diaper you donate, they will exchange 25¢ in Lakefront Brewery gift cards to spend in their Beer Hall that day or any day in the future.

Lakefront will also be accepting fully packaged baby wipes and training pants, trading 25¢ for each pair of training pants and for every 10 wipes. Milwaukee Diaper Mission will accept all applicable items they can help distribute, but please be aware that diapers, training pants, and wipes will be the only items accepted for Lakefront Brewery gift cards.

Milwaukee Diaper Mission can always use donations in all sizes but are in greatest need of baby wipes, size 2 and size 5 diapers, and 4T/5T training pants.
