Item Description

Did you know that on average, parents of a baby or young toddler will go through 2,700 diapers in one year? Even the most coupon-savvy parents will still pay an estimated $600 a year in diapers. This is simple out of reach for parents struggling to make ends meet.

When families don’t have enough diapers—which are not covered by WIC or food stamp programs—they may delay changing a soiled diaper, attempt to potty train well before a child is ready (causing accidents, shame and behavioral issues) or even attempt to clean and re-use a soiled disposable diaper. These practices may lead to health issues for the child, such as rashes on the skin and infections in the urinary tract, and all of those can lead to excessive crying, which increases risk factors for child abuse. One simple, clean diaper can change a life.

This is where you can help... your donation of $50.00 will sponsor diapers for a child for one month, allowing a family in need to breathe a little easier, knowing their baby or toddler will have the diapers they need.
