2017 was an incredible year here at Jake's Diapers! It was our biggest year EVER! Thanks to your amazing support, we've helped more babies than ever.
In the Fox Valley, some pretty exciting things are finally coming together! Last year, we distributed nearly 3,000 disposable diapers and 120 cloth diapers just in the Fox Valley. This year, we're on a mission to help even MORE babies.
We're launching a pilot program with Family Services in Oshkosh. For parents & caregivers, they'll have a choice of either a partial supply of disposable diapers each month, or a complete set of cloth diapers to last from birth to potty training. This model allows us to meet people where they're at, with what works best for their unique situation. Our goal is to help 100 Oshkosh area babies through this partnership, with other partnerships coming on board throughout the year.
Both Wihlm Dental of Oshkosh & NBC 26 held Diaper Drives to help raise diapers, funds, and awareness. Be sure to check out NBC 26's video of the Diaper Drive!
