Bright Futures From the Bottom Up! 2025 NashDiaper Virtual Diaper Drive

Ten years ago, I saw a television commercial about how challenging it was for some parents in our community to provide diapers for their babies enrolled in daycare. It was for the Nashville Diaper Connection and I learned that it was the only place families could diapers—which is a basic need—free of charge.

I was immediately engaged and mentioned it to a friend who had also seen the commercial. We soon discovered that our sorority’s past president council was looking for a service project and we shared what we’d learned about the Nashville Diaper Connection. That

resulted in a partnership with the organization. We later selected the Nashville Diaper Connection as our signature program which means that we will continue our support as long as the community demonstrates a need for diapers.

Through our partnership, we host ‘Diaper Wraps’ which solicits diaper donations on NDC’s behalf throughout the year. Each September, we reach out to other Greek organizations, friends, and family to donate. In recognition of National Diaper Awareness Week, we organize a diaper pick up drive. We also provide an annual monetary donation to NDC for additional diapers.

Many of us take infants’ and babies’ basic needs for granted and when I reflect on the ten years of partnership between our sorority and Nashville Diaper Connection, I see that the need for this community supported effort has only grown. It is such a worthy cause and a rewarding experience knowing that you are making a difference in the lives of children and their families. We ask for your help to shape the future and provide hope to those in need as we continue our work to leave no wet child behind! Please make a donation. No amount is too large or small.
