‘Tis the Season for giving back, and with #GivingTuesday upon us we’d like to celebrate the ways our community of partners has supported us.
Loraine, a Puerto Rico mom of three (ages 9, 3 and 1), has been a vital piece of our support puzzle to connect with those in need in that territory since Hurricane Maria devastated the already struggling area last year.
To date, she has helped us distribute some of more than a thousand cloth diaper kits.
Her generosity is rubbing off on others there, too!
“Sometimes my 9 year old comes home and says, ‘Mom I saw a baby today - she didn’t have cloth diapers, you have to take cloth diapers to school,’” Loraine said. “He already told the principal of the school that mommy helps with the cloth diapers.”
We’re so happy to have Loraine and your support to help her and us make a difference.
Make an impact for #GivingTuesday:In 2017, the global giving movement known as #GivingTuesday raised more than $300M online. The average gift given was $120.40. That’s a lot of little steps combining efforts to making a big difference.
At Jake’s Diapers, we believe every small step makes a big difference in ending poverty. Please consider joining the 2018 #GivingTuesday movement to support Jake’s in empowering people to live clean, healthy and prosperous lives. GlobalGiving is matching donations supporting relief work in Puerto Rico at 100%. This is a tremendous opportunity to amplify your impact.
Thanks for helping babies!
