School Diaper Drives! Make it fun! Decorate a playpen or crib to hold donated diapers and place it in a highly visible location! Plan a high profile kick-off event! Collect coins to purchase diapers.

Teach poverty and philanthropy, cost of living, and the importance of education as part of your curriculum. Introduce and develop goal setting, organizational and marketing skills. Have a party to celebrate the difference you’ve made!
Workplace Diaper Drives! Make it fun! Raise awareness and boost team spirit at the office! Decorate a playpen or crib to hold donated diapers and place it in a highly visible location!
