GREENVILLE--Greenville High School exchange students with the International Student Exchange program are now conducting a Diaper Drive to benefit the Pregnancy Help Center in Greenville.

The students are collecting diapers (sizes 3,4, and 5) as well as wet wipes, which clients at the Help Center may receive by participating in parenting education classes. The Diaper Drive will run through March 30 with drop off locations at Greenville High School, Bread of Life, the Coffee Pot, and Solutions Hair Salon.

Students with the program are required to complete a minimum of five community service hours to give back to the community they live in while here in the U.S. and thank all who participate in this drive. For more information, contact Heather Brown, 997-2209.

Greenville High School exchange students Nina Schneider (Austria), Lena Stephan (Germany), Jiyeong Woo (South Korea), Robin Mai (Germany), and Diego Almada (Mexico).
