Thursday Giveaway: Summer Love
May 21, 2014 6:29 pm | by

Screen Shot 2014-05-21 at 7.24.37 PMSummer, the season of love. Whether it’s the warmer temperatures or bright sunny skies, there’s always a lot to enjoy.

But if your a parent who needs help caring for your family, summer can also be stressful and you’re forced to worry about child care, meals and other basic necessities like diapers. 

Our national cloth diaper bank, Share the Love, was created to help needy families — all year round. It’s a locally-sustainable, nationally-accessible program that has more than 100 host sites throughout the U.S.

This summer, we want to continue spreading the word about Share the Love while also making the season more enjoyable for everyone and you can help with this week’s giveaway.

Five people will win a Share the Love tote bag to transport all their summer necessities and an Econobum One-Size Cloth Diaper Cover.  To enter, tell us what you love most about summer.

PS: Diaper donations are accepted at any Share the Love host site. You can find the nearest location here

To open a Share the Love host in your area, please fill out this application.  

If you are in need of help, please check the list of Share the Love host sites and, if you have a one in your area, click here to apply.

    Summer is my favorite season. There are so many things I love about summer! I love when it’s warm enough to go swimming. I love when it’s hot enough to go swimming at night! I love eating BBQ more often. I love that we wear sandals and flip flops so there’s less laundry because no one is wearing socks! I love that laundry and diapers on the line dry in no time. Most of all I love that we have so much fun together as a family in the summer!

  • Jess said...
