Often times, it’s because we receive so many applications when we reopen that we need to get caught up.  There are even times when some of us decide to take much needed vacations!  Then, there are times like now.  We just plum run out of diapers!

Lately, it seems as if about 75% of our applications are for newborn or small babies.  Yep, you got it!  We’re out.  Completely OUT of small diapers.  Well, that was until last week when we started receiving donations for the diaper drive.

Ironically, we closed for applications in order to build up our “diaper cave” so that we could reopen going full blazes.  The problem is, we were so behind on smalls, all of the smalls we’ve received for our Dozens Diaper Drive so far are being shipped right back out to those in need of smalls.  As of today, Labor Day (when we shouldn’t be working!!), we need to send out diaper for 7 newborn and small babies!

Now, 7 may not sound like a lot, right?  If you translate that into 12 diapers per baby, it still may not sound like an awful lot.  But, when you put it into the REAL perspective and say that I need 84 small diapers to send out, it kinda goes from … “oh” to “DANG!” On top of that, we try not to send boys pink diapers, so we have to divide and send according to color!  One day, we’ll make a post on the process of packaging up diapers (with one person doing it!).

So, why and how long are we closed for applications?  Until we reach our goal of 1200 diapers donated so that we don’t have to keep taking long breaks!  We REALLY appreciate your patience during this time!

Do you want to follow our progress on that?  Check out or Dozens Diaper Drive page by clicking the logo below!!  Do you want to donate?  All of the info that you need to donate to us is on that page!

This past week, we have sent out over 500 diapers to families in need! That said, we are running EXTREMELY LOW on diapers and covers! Our demand always seems to exceed our supply, however, we’re grateful to be able to offer our services.

Our goal is to bring in 1,200 diapers (no fabric please) by the end of September! We would LOVE to bring in more, however, we will not be able to reopen for applications until we’ve received our goal in diapers. We average 35-50 applications each time we open, and this number would ensure that we’re able to fill the need promptly.
