A recurring theme that we have used is “Give the Gift of Love (Diapers)”
With Valentine’s day being the day of love; why not ask our supporters for “gifts of love”. We have received several gifts of love since the first of the year.
Birthday donation drive hosted by Ms. Marcia.
We met Ms. Marcia in the store while purchasing diapers. She inquired about the amount of diapers we had. We explained that we were a nonprofit that gives diapers to families with babies. We stood and talked for 15 min sharing our story. Little did we know, Ms. Marcia was coming up with a way to help. She sent us a message at the beginning of the year, that she was asking friends and family to give her diapers and wipes for her birthday.
Ms. Marcia collected 386 diapers and 7 packs of wipes in her Birthday Diaper Donation Drive.
Community outreach – Freedom Rock/Tuskegee University
Ms. Wanda, a supporter and friend of the diaper bank, reached out to us with a request to help families affected by the recent storms in Alabama. We were more than happy to help.
We sent 470 diapers, donated to families via Freedom Rock & Tuskegee University’s outreach programs.

When you give to Bottoms Up, you are not just giving a donation. You are giving families the opportunity to do more. You are helping a family not have to choose between necessities.
As always, we thank you for your continued support of Bottoms Up Diaper Bank and the things we are doing in West Alabama.
