A 2010 study revealed that one in three American mothers struggle to provide diapers for their babies. These mothers have had to cut back on basics such as food and utilities in order to provide enough diapers. Yet there is little help for these mothers and babies as many community-based organizations don’t provide diapers; neither do food assistance programs. Huggies® "Every Little Bottom" was created with a single mission – to help get diapers to babies in need. |
