For Release:  February 1, 2010

Miracle Diapes Is Now The Cloth Diaper Foundation

empowering families, improving the environment

As Miracle Diapers has grown so has the number of families they assist.  In 2009, they helped over 450 babies directly, more than 100 babies through sponsorship and local distribution, and assisted other charities with the same mission as well!

To better serve those families Miracle Diapers reaccessed it’s structure and practices.  They have:

  • New leadership with Roxanna Jolly-CEO and Lisa Johnston-Operations Manager and Board Chair
  • Relocated their headquarters to Katy, Texas
  • Restructured how they process and accept applications
  • Opened a retail store for fundraising
  • Founded a new membership program
  • Welcomed several new board members from the cloth diapering industry

In it’s fifth year Miracle Diapers wants to continue moving forward and has decided to take on a new name that better describes the organization and it’s mission.

Miracle Diapers is now The Cloth Diaper Foundation

“We felt that a more appropriate name would help the community have a better understanding of who we are, as we have often been mistaken for a diaper manufacturer.  Our desire to move forward and build a legacy of support for the cloth diapering community will be reflected in our new name:  The Cloth Diaper Foundation”

– Roxanna Jolly, CEO, The Cloth Diaper Foundation

Monetary donations fell last year due to the economy.  Which means there are more families out there for The Cloth Diaper Foundation to help!  While diaper donations are always appreciated, we must be able to financially support organization growth.  Let’s make this happen together and spread the CD love. Visit http://clothdiaperfoundation.org today to find out how you can help!

To assist in fund raising efforts, in the month of February, Tracy Whittemore and Lisa Adkins from The Cloth Diaper Company have so graciously offered to match, product for product, each Cloth Diaper Company product sold (DryBees, Wahmies, Rocky Mountain Diapers) in The Cloth Diaper Foundation Retail Store with an equal donation to our organization.

(Example – Purchase a Rocky Mountain Diaper OS Pocket, CDC will donate our organization a RMD OS Pocket, DryBees for DryBees, etc.)

Our newest member of the family, Piper.  She was born on Oct 16, weighing in at 7lbs 6oz via c-section after my blood pressure had reached a dangerous 140/100.  Later that afternoon, Piper was admitted to the Level II nursery at McMaster Children’s Hospital for low blood sugar where she was put on an IV.  While in the nursery she started experiencing bradycardia’s (low heart rate dips) and apneas (stopped breathing) and so she was kept in the nursery until they could determine what was causing these spells and she stopped having them.  After several tests including: 2 ECG’s, 2 cardiology consults, 1 genetics consult and lab work-up to rule out Turner & Nunes Syndromes, 1 head ultrasound, 1 abdominal ultrasound and a chest x-ray it was determined that everything was fine.  After 2 weeks in the hospital we were finally able to bring our baby girl home.  We continue to see a paediatrician on a regular basis to ensure there aren’t any long-term problems from the spells she experienced early on.  She is now 3 months old and thriving.  Here is a pic of her showing off her DryBees AIO last month.

I can’t believe the time is upon us.  The newest For Baby with Love baby will be arriving via c-section on October 22.  We will leave the online store open; however, understandably we will be a little busy for at least a week while I recover in hospital and adjust to having a new baby at home.

I ask that you all bear with us as we welcome our newest addition and I’ll be sure to post as soon as we’re home with pictures.
