Muriel’s Focus:

Ensuring that individuals and families in the St. Louis region have a resource for diapers and period supplies to help take care of their most basic needs; creating an awareness of how diaper need and period poverty affects their lives.

Muriel is an experienced non-profit professional with expertise in nonprofit management, community relations, marketing communications, fundraising, and board development. She has nearly 20 years of experience serving several nonprofit organizations in St. Louis during the course of her career. She is also a graduate of the Focus St. Louis Coro Women In Leadership (WIL) and Leadership St. Louis programs; and a member of the St. Louis Business Journal Leadership Trust.

“For most of my career, I have seen how the lack of equitable distribution of resources, such as education, grocery stores, housing, and green spaces has affected the lives of those living in underserved neighborhoods in the St. Louis community. One of the things that struck me the most about the people we served at each organization I worked for was the lack of access to basic needs that most people took for granted. That is why I was excited and honored to join the St. Louis Area Diaper Bank because I have seen firsthand the struggle families go through when they don’t have what they need to be successful. We don’t just provide diapers and period supplies to those who need them, we provide hope, dignity, and understanding.”

“The impact of something as simple as the lack of diapers or menstrual products is profound. While many people take access to basic needs for granted, so many in St. Louis and around the country struggle to afford those basic needs. This is where the St. Louis Area Diaper Bank steps in to help in those times of crisis and/or need. My goal is streamline our organization’s processes so that we can be more efficient and effective to those we serve in the community. We our organization is running in the most efficient and effective way possible, we can do more in and for the community and effectuate real change. I am so proud to be a part of the St. Louis Area Diaper Bank and help families in our area.”
