Where should I park?

Location + Parking Information

We have plenty of on-site parking in our parking lot. Our building is set down off the road a bit, and has our parent company, COVERD Greater Cincinnati, on the building. You won’t see Sweet Cheeks Diaper Bank listed on any signage on the exterior of the building. Below is a picture of the driveway you’ll go down to get to us. Look for the large “1400” sign on the right.

Student Volunteers

Student Volunteers are always welcome at Tidal Babe Period Bank! Consider us when looking for rewarding ways to fulfill your community service hour requirements for school and clubs. With our online volunteer signups, tracking and verifying your hours has never been easier! We offer several evening and Saturday morning volunteer times each month to work around your school day, but they fill up fast so don’t wait till the last minute!

Young Volunteers

Kids are always welcome at Tidal Babe but we rely on their guardian to help us gauge how much they can help. Not only can we keep them busy with light work, we also have a small play area to keep younger kids occupied (and contained if you’ve got some really little ones!). Kids under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a guardian and maintain a youth to adult ratio of 3:1.

There are many ways your younger children can get involved outside the warehouse too. Whether it’s organizing a period supply drive in your neighborhood or school or an Empty-Your-Piggybank change drive to collect loose coins for Tidal Babe, it’s never too early to start teaching our kids how to serve others and their community. We’d also love to come to speak to your Daisy Troop, Girl Scouts, Cub or Boy Scouts, church youth group, or another group of youngsters about period poverty in the Greater Cincinnati community and how they can help to eliminate it.
