Low-income families often have the daily stress of choosing between food and diapers. Prolonged wearing of a wet diaper causes diaper rash and a crying baby leads to more stress in the home.
About the need
Support the 2022 Cobb Diaper Day throughout September and October. Donations are due by October 26.
Help us reach the goal of collecting more than 100,000 diapers for low-income families with infants and young children.We are collecting all sizes of diapers!
- Declare a day to collect diapers and donate from your employees, organization members or friends, or hold a diaper drive in your neighborhood.
- Drop-off donations: We will be hosting two collection days (Oct. 12, 9 am - 12 pm & Oct. 26, 4-6p) at the Cobb EMC Solar Flower Garden.
- Donate to the Cobb Children's Fund for our committee to purchase diapers.
- Order from Amazon and they will be directly shipped for distribution.
- Email DiaperDayCobb@gmail.com to arrange for pick-up.
In these tough economic times, low-income families face the facts that:
Food stamps do not include hygiene products such as diapers.
On average, the cost to purchase diapers is approximately $100/month.
Day care centers require parents to provide their own diapers.
Local agencies, including the Cobb Douglas Public Health, Communities in Schools in Georgia Marietta/Cobb County, LiveSafe Resources, MUST Ministries, Ser Familia, Simple Needs Georgia, Sweetwater Mission, The Center for Family Resources are supporting families in critical need.
