Why We Exist
-
There is no state or federal assistance for the purchase of diapers, diaper rash cream, bathing products, strollers, car seats or other basic necessities.
-
Families living below the poverty line are being forced to choose between basic essentials, like food or utilities, and basic necessities for their babies.
-
Without an ample supply of hygiene products and diapers, babies often suffer from physical ailments such as severe diaper rash, which can lead to high levels of mental stress for both parents and child.
-
Families who can’t afford basic necessities for their babies often struggle with the logistical aspects of daycare, child care or early education programs. Without proper transportation or supplies to leave their children, parents are forced to miss work or school.
