Share the Love now shipping diapers to families in need. #sharethelove

As many of you know Cotton Babies works hard to give to those less fortunate. Jenn and Jimmy Labit started Cotton Babies out of a need to provide income for their family. They had to cloth diaper because there was no room for disposables in the budget. Because of those unique roots Cotton Babies has been working to give to projects that our near and dear to our hearts. From time to time you may have heard us talk about the Sheltering Wings Orphanage in Burkina Faso, Africa. Cotton Babies regularly supports this organization with cloth diapers and funding for formula. We recently received the note below and a few pictures from the orphanage and wanted to share them with you because without your support as customers we would not be able to help these children. Thank you helping us to share some love around the world into remote places as far as Burkina Faso, Africa.

Hello Cotton Babies!

Wanted to send you a little note to say thank you so much for all the love and support and contributions that you send to Sheltering Wings.

May the Lord richly bless you for your generosity and for all that you have sown into our children here. Our babies’ bottoms are clean and dry because of you. Our babies’ tummies are full and their bodies are fat. . . . because of you. We are protected and covered by your prayers. We are encouraged by your love.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
From afar. . . . but, close-by in spirit,
Ruth

    This is awesome! Those babies, (and those raising them) are so greatful for a wonderful couple and company to help them. It’s heartwarming to know that when I spend money with a company for my own child, it’s helping babies on the other side of the world! I aplaud you Cottonbabies! Thank you so much!

    This is why i love you guys! I am fairly new to cloth diapering, but when i saw that you donate to needy families i knew id be spending my money on Cottonbabies!! There is so better feeling than knowing that the money i spend on cloth will be helping diaper babies, and i just learned that you donate formula!, babies in need!

    This is so awesome and amazing! You are the best Cottonbabies!

    This is one of the many reasons I buy from you and not from knock off companies. Thank you for being such an outstanding company – making great products, putting people to work in America & beyond and for supporting the less fortunate in our own country and beyond. You guys rock!

    You don’t hear THEM complaining about having to diaper that many babies, lol! Most americans could learn something from them, if they bothered to listen. Present company excluded of course, you’ve already gotten it, lol!

    They look so CUTE! (almost makes me want another, almost)

    Yes, Cotton Babies truly is such a great company! I just did some facebook promotion to my friends (not for the first time) just because I am so thankful for you guys. I love what you are doing to help bless needy children around the world, and our family was personally so very blessed to receive a diaper grant. It has been a tremendous help!!!

    Thank you Cottonbabies for sharing this! I knew that you donated diapers to babies in need, but I didn’t realize that you were also donating formula for these sweet little babies! This blog post actually had me crying…tears for these little ones, and tears of graditude that some of the money that I spend at your store when I buy diapers and baby products, is going to help these precious babies! Keep up the awesome work, thanks for making a tangible difference in this world.
