As a mother of a 4-year-old (no longer in diapers - thank goodness!), I know all too well how expensive diapers can be. When I began my journey with Keeping Families Covered, I had no idea just how many families in our own communities are struggling. It truly broke my heart.
Did you know…
• Half of all U.S. families can’t afford enough diapers to keep their babies clean, dry, and healthy?
• Two in five people struggle to afford basic period supplies?
• Nearly 25 million adults in this country live with urinary incontinence—and many can’t access the products they need?
These are everyday essentials. And without them, people are forced to make heartbreaking choices. Parents miss work. Kids miss school. Adults isolate out of shame. Dignity, health, and opportunity - all put on hold for lack of something so simple.
Our mission is to change that.
We’re working to remove the barriers that keep people from getting the essentials they need - not just to survive, but to live fully. Because everyone deserves to feel clean, confident, and cared for.
You can help make that possible.
Thank you for giving. Thank you for caring. And thank you for believing that small acts of kindness can change lives.
