Hey lovely blog readers. I wanted to take a quick moment and plug something that is becoming more and more near and dear to my heart, the orphan crisis. (Being a mommy really changed me and opened my eyes to this subject, more to come later)
There is a LARGE and REAL NEED to get cloth diapers over to orphanages in Africa. Right now they are being as creative as they can with the resources they have but that is not always enough to keep these bottoms clean and dry.
Many are reusing disposable diapers by rinsing them out and hanging them up to dry, they use plastic bags and put a towel, liner of some sort inside. Like I said, creative with what they have but we can help them diaper these kiddos through sending over cloth diapers.
A new blog friend of mine
Christie she is starting a large campaign to get diapers over to agencies in Ethiopia. Her son Zek is adopted from Ethiopia and oh so darn cute!! So she has the hook up and the fire to get these over there. Her husband is also getting ready to go on a mission trip to Africa as well.
WHAT THEY NEED:
- Prefold diapers
- Flat diapers
- Microfiber inserts for some of the pocket diapers they have been able to get donated
She also has a place on her
blog where you can donate a kit that will diaper the bottom of an orphan.
So as you can see there are sooo many ways you can help out with this cause. The little bottoms of this world need your help.
Head on over to Christie's blog
http://knowingnobounds.blogspot.com/ and check out how you can help. Or you can get in touch with me and we actually happen to live close so I can get them to her.
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!!
