Understanding the heavy burden of diaper costs for many US families, Believe Baby supports K.I.N.D. Day (Kids n Need of Diapers Day) on Sunday, May 4th as a special way to offer greater support. To amplify our ongoing 1-for-1 donation program, we will generously donate two of our sustainably made bamboo diapers and wipes for each one purchased. This thoughtful effort, rooted in our eco-friendly approach and amplified by our collaboration with Target, aims to bring much-needed relief to families across the U.S.
In the current economic landscape, families across America are facing a growing challenge that extends beyond the immediate pinch of inflation: the rising cost of essential baby care products, the most impactful being diapers. This issue has far-reaching implications, not just for household budgets but also for public health and social equity. Thankfully, at the forefront of addressing this challenge is Believe Baby, with its pioneering 1 for 1 donation model, offering a glimmer of hope in these trying times.
K.I.N.D. Day, or Kids In Need of Diapers Day, is coming up this May 4th. It’s an important day intended to bring attention to a fundamental yet often overlooked need in many American households: diapers. This day not only sheds light on the far reaching challenges and stressors faced by families struggling to afford this basic necessity, but also encourages those who are able to provide support and take action.
It is heartbreaking to know that for some families something as simple as keeping a baby clean and dry is a major uphill battle. In 2010, it was discovered that 1 in 3 families are navigating Diaper Need, a shockingly high number. Unfortunately, that number has only continued to grow.
For some, that’s a diaper crisis. For others, being able to run out and purchase a pack of diapers whenever they need them is far from their reality. Instead, their reality is known as the Diaper Need crisis, a major problem many families in the US face with long lasting impacts on mom, dad, and baby.
More US states have pushed for abortion bans while millions of families struggle to provide the basic necessities, including diapers, for their children without any available government aid. Here are some of the small ways we all can do our part.
