I'm in the Seattle Metro area and had a similar experience. I was taking my infant to physical therapy a few years ago. We were headed to our car and a semi truck was parked in the valet roundabout handing out food, diapers, formula. We said no thank you, we are okay. They told us we could pull our car around and they'd load the trunk for us. They said that the cancer treatments, NICU, etc is often so expensive on families they can't afford disposable diapers or the parents will often go without essentials. In response, the county setup this mobile refrigerated grocery truck and went to where the families would be so there'd be no shame. That broke my heart.
