CHICAGO (CBS) -- National Diaper Awareness Week kicks off this week.

The goal is to raise awareness of the problem many low-income families face to provide enough diapers to keep their children dry, clean, and healthy.

This weekend, State Sen. Karina Villa and local organizations are teaming up to host a diaper drive.

Volunteers will meet at the Jewel-Osco near Kirk Road and Foxfield Drive in Saint Charles to collect items.

The event kicks off Friday at 10 a.m. and will run through Sunday.
