Paper clips and binder clips are okay but no binders, metal, etc. Keeping a baby clean, dry, and healthy eliminates diaper rash, psychological issues for mother and child, and other health issues arising from diaper need.Paper only, no media. A mom coming home from the hospital with a new baby without family support and does not know how she will get diapers when she runs out in a few days. A young mom coming out of recovery needs diapers to be able to spend the day with her kids to work toward custody. Many stories are anecdotal-Clients cry when they are handed diapers in the sizes they need. Bottoms Up makes a commitment to the community partners to deliver diapers in the sizes they need on a consistent basis to serve their clients.
Typically, they would purchase them if possible, or they would receive diapers donated from supporters but nothing consistent. Our community partners did not have a consistent supply of diapers for their clients before Bottoms Up. In 2020 Bottoms Up provided 556,318 diapers to our partners in Central Ohio. Today, Bottoms Up delivers more than 65,000 diapers to its 75 community partners (food pantries, child care facilities, domestic abuse shelters, substance addiction recovery centers, hospitals, etc.) in 13 Ohio Counties. Much to their surprise, they received more than 80 boxes of donated diapers delivered to their front porch.Īnd, it grew from there. The goal was to collect 40 boxes of diapers (one for each year they had been married) and distribute those boxes to the poor through food pantries, child care facilities, domestic abuse shelters, etc. They started Bottoms Up as a celebration of their 40th wedding anniversary. Tim and Jo Welsh are lifelong residents of Fairfield County, have been married for 43 years, and have always had a heart for the less fortunate.
