HealthyBaby, the pioneering leader of the safest baby essentials for developing bodies, has pledged to donate 750,000 diapers to families under financial stress. Diapers are the fourth-highest household expense, after rent, food and utilities for new families. With this donation, HealthyBaby aims to alleviate this stressor. To ensure families can receive babycare products coast to coast, the brand is partnering with charitable organizations Baby2Baby, a national nonprofit organization that provides families living in poverty with diapers, clothing, and all the basic necessities that every child deserves, and Robin Hood, New York City’s largest poverty-fighting philanthropy.

Since its inception, HealthyBaby has been dedicated to creating baby products that are made safely and are effective. Although diapers are essential to a baby’s development – with babies sitting in them all hours of the day – the diaper industry is largely unregulated. HealthyBaby created the first Environmental Working Group (EWG)-Verified Safe diaper, which means it is made without over 2800+ chemicals and materials linked to health harm commonly used in diaper manufacturing. What’s more, HealthyBaby is Plastic Neutral Certified and has helped remove over one million pounds of plastic from our planet. Parents can have full peace of mind knowing the diapers they receive are not only the safest choice for their baby but also for the environment.
 

Of the pledge, Activist Founder of HealthyBaby Shazi Visram and chief onnovation officer Hillary Swank, agree “As mothers, keeping our babies safe and cared for comes first. Clean diapers should be accessible to every baby, and we hope this donation eases the financial burden of young families during the holidays and throughout the year.”

“Having access to clean, disposable diapers is important for a baby’s health and critical to the dignity of parents and caregivers who want to do what is best for their babies. Diapers also allow babies to participate in educational programs and help get parents back to work,” said Richard R. Buery, Jr., CEO of Robin Hood. “Providing access to diapers for mothers and caregivers reduces stress for everyone – the baby and the entire family.  Our partnership with HealthyBaby is unlocking opportunities and represents another milestone along our journey to make New York City a metropolis centered on early childhood, the most important period of development in any person’s life.”
