The Iowa WOCN Affiliate sponsors a free ostomy education day for ostomates and their support families every year. This event is held in different parts of the state to offer benefit to the many ostomates statewide. This year marked the 10th year for this event, and was held in Sioux City Iowa on April 7th. The affiliate sponsored a “pouch drive” where they collected pouches and accessories that are unused from patients and clinicians and were donated to the FOW-USA. The WOCN packed the boxes and sent 203.5 pounds of product to the warehouse in Louisville!! The WOCN were so pleased with the number of donations that they received, and it surpassed the 170 pounds that they sent last October after their fall conference. Together we can make a difference!!!
