Diaper Green Bay | House of Hope

On July 18, Green Bay Doulas and House of Hope will host the 3rd annual Diaper Green Bay diaper drive to benefit infants and families in our community experiencing homelessness and housing instability. The drive will raise funds, diapers, and awareness about family and childhood homelessness and the many families in need of clean, dry diapers throughout Green Bay. Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, the event will not be held at Titletown Park; however, organizations throughout the community will serve as diaper drop off locations.

One in three mothers in America struggle to provide their babies with clean diapers. Unfortunately, there is very little help or public resources to alleviate this problem. Food assistance programs do not extend to diaper purchases, most licensed daycare facilities require disposable diapers, and most laundromats do not allow cloth diapers to be washed there due to sanitary concerns. This can lead to babies being kept in dirty diapers for extended periods of time, causing both physical and emotional suffering for so many little ones.

Green Bay Doulas has partnered with House of Hope to raise awareness for these babies and families. All diapers and proceeds will benefit the young parents and children served by House of Hope, as well as families in need throughout our community.

If your business is interested in becoming a drop off location for Diaper Green Bay, please contact Emily Jacobson at emily@greenbaydoulas.com or Beth Hudak at bethh@houseofhopegb.org.

Please join us in making a difference for babies and their families right here in our community.
