My very sweet friend emailed and said that she wanted to purchase items from Amazon and ship them directly to tornado victims, but wasn't sure where to have them shipped. What a great idea! I checked into it, and Asbury United Methodist Church here in Madison has partnered with UMCOR and is accepting donations by mail. Here are a few deals on baby supplies which are desperately needed, and can be purchased and shipped via Amazon . . .
- Sign up for Amazon Mom if you haven't already
- Go HERE and choose which size diapers your little one needs.
- Choose Subscribe and Save at checkout. Look in the right sidebar for the “Subscribe & Save” option. I usually choose to re-subscribe in six months, but you can immediately cancel the order once your order is placed
- Pay between $21.45 and $23.51, for as many as 192 diapers
- Sign up for Amazon Mom if you haven’t already
- Place Pampers ThickCare Wipes, Unscented, 504 Count in your cart
- Clip the $.50 off coupon on that page
- Choose Subscribe and Save at checkout Look in the right sidebar for the “Subscribe & Save” option. I usually choose to re-subscribe in six months, but you can immediately cancel subscribe & save once your order is placed.
- Proceed to checkout. Your total will be $9.29.
Here's the address that they can be shipped to –
Attn: Ray Crump
UMCOR Disaster Relief Warehouse
2342 Breckenridge Ave, Bldg F
Decatur, AL 35603
If you're looking for where to deliver donations throughout Alabama, go HERE.
Note: The Amazon link above is an affiliate link and I will make a small commission off any sales of these items, of which one half normally goes towards mission work. However, through tomorrow, 100% of the commission that I make from diapers or wipes on Amazon will go to support tornado relief efforts here in North Alabama.

I used mine.

Good idea Nancy (I guess they could always call us – never had Amazon call anyways!) 🙂
Couponing for a Cause says
Thank you SO much for posting about this!! We live in the area as well and are couponing and working to get great deals to donate to those affected. We found a previous post on your website about this same offer, and yesterday we were able to order 2400 diapers and 4600 wipes for relief!!! Praise God! We appreciate that you are promoting this and giving your commission to the relief. May God bless you and all you are doing to help Alabama.

That’s fabulous! I love that you all are doing that – thank you so much for sharing!
