What you can do to help fight those that are in need of diapers.
Did you know that one in three U.S. families struggle to provide clean diapers for their baby? For the third year in a row, Huggies® Every Little Bottom and Meijer® partnered to help fight diaper need and empower shoppers to give back. It’s hard to hear how many are hurting just for some diapers for their little ones. It’s very important for babies to have the right diapers on. Luckily Huggies and Meijer partnered together to help fight the diaper need.
Huggies and Meijer Fight Diaper Need with Help of Michigan Parents
- Kimberly-Clark first brought the issue of diaper need to the forefront in 2010, when the groundbreaking Huggies Every Little Bottom study revealed one in three U.S. moms suffer from the inability to provide fresh, clean diapers for their babies.
- For the third year in a row, Huggies® Every Little Bottom and Meijer® partnered to help fight diaper need and empower local shoppers to give back.
- For every pack of Huggies that was purchased at Meijer from November 1, 2015 through January 2, 2016, Meijer pledged to donate one dollar and Huggies donated enough diapers to diaper a baby for a day to the National Diaper Bank Network.
Thanks to loyal Meijer customers, Meijer and Huggies will donate $10,000 and 150,000 diapers to help diaper babies in need throughout the Midwest.

I hope that you’ll join Huggies and Meijer by helping fight diaper need!
Diaper need is a serious problem. The price of diapers is constantly rising, and minimum wage is not. I love the idea of donating your points in order to help those in need.
I completely agree. Diapers are so expensive, so this is a great way for those that need them to get the diapers they need. I love it!
Diapers and other baby essentials are so expensive! I’m glad that Meijer and Huggies have teamed up to fight diaper need.
Me too! It’s so wonderful that they’re doing this.
I’m so glad to hear the Meijer and Huggies are doing this. Baby items are so expensive, and you can go through so many diapers in a day!
Right! Diapers go so fast it’s crazy.
That’s a higher statistic than I thought. I’m really glad the brands have teamed up to help those in need.
Me too! It’s great to hear about them helping out.
Wow, diaper need is a pretty serious problem. I had to re-read the first section because from the title I thought it was saying you wanted to fight the people who have the need, not fight the need! Gah, obviously I am losing my mind. How great that Huggies is helping fight this problem.
I love it as well. It’s great that there are companies out there that are willing to help others.
I had no idea there were so many in need. I haven’t had the need for diapers in years and years. Even back then though, diapers weren’t cheap.
They’re definitely not cheap. They can get very expensive.
It’s ridiculous how expensive diapers are. They are such a necessity and so expensive to keep up with. This is a great team effort!
Right! They’re so expensive it’s crazy.
What a sad statistic. I love seeing companies give back and help those in need.
I love it as well. It is heartbreaking that some can’t afford diapers too. They can get so expensive.
Love that Meijer and Huggies are spreading the diaper love. It breaks my heart that some parents can not afford to keep a clean diaper on their little ones bum. Absolutely devastating.
It is very heartbreaking. It’s great that other companies can help them out though.
What a great way to help out people in need. So many parents could use all the help they can get.
They sure can. It’s great to have companies that work together like this.
Love that Meijer and Huggies are pairing up like this!! It is crazy how much it can cost to diaper babies now a days.
It really is crazy how expensive they can get. I love that they’re teaming to help others out.
Wow it’s so awful that 1 in 3 moms struggle with access to diapers. They are so terribly expensive. I saw a chart a few weeks back showing that for parents who make minimum wage they spend 14% of their total income on diapers. That is such a high % of income for something that we just throw away.
I completely agree. I wish there was a way for diapers to be much cheaper. It’s nice when they bring out rebates or coupons like this.
Diapers go so fast sometimes! We need to help those in need!
I completely agree. Helping out is a wonderful thing.
This is a fantastic way to help other Mom’s. Diapers are so expensive. I will have to share this with other Mom’s i know.
Thanks for sharing!
I am happy that these two companies came together for a great cause! I hope they will be able to reach more households to ease the burden of diaper need.
I completely agree. I love what they’re doing.
The prices of diapers keep getting higher. This is a great campaign. I like the idea of donating your points.
I love this idea as well. Anyway to help someone else out is always nice.
What a great way to help mothers in need! I will have to donate my huggies rewards. I also live in MI so I might have to check out the event.
That’s great to hear! I hope you’re able to attend. If you do end up going you’ll have to let me know how it goes.
When our first baby was born, we actually experienced diaper need. I love to see these companies are working together to help eliminate it.
I love it as well. It’s so great that they’re will to help out others.
Diapers are so expensive. I used to buy the store brand in order to save money. Plus, I started couponing so that I could get diapers cheaper.
I use to do the same thing. Using coupons for anything possible.
This is a wonderful campaign! Sometimes, when diapers are on clearance or I have a really good coupon, I will donate them to our local food-shelf.
That’s so great to hear. Good for you!
This is such a great cause. I know that we have diaper donations around here, but they are still in demand as the prices keep rising.
That’s great to hear about having diaper donations around your area too. Diapers can get so expensive, it’s hard for some to be able to afford them.
That is great with what they are doing. It’s sad that some families cant afford to buy diapers.
I completely agree. Diapers can get so expensive.
I need to login into my Huggies rewards account to see if I have any points I can donate. I used the program when my daughter was in diapers but I don’t remember if I have any points left.
I need to check as well. I honestly can’t remember if I have an account with Huggies or not.
That’s neat that Huggies & Meijer are helping give diapers to those in need, but they could also lower the prices. We were blessed enough to be able to cloth diaper (old fashioned, not the $300 kind) and breastfeed, but the prices of essential baby items for those who cannot do that is ridiculous!
I agree. The prices are so expensive. It’s great that they’re giving back. I love it.
The cost of diapers are outrageously expensive! Therefore, I’m happy to hear that Meijer ad Huggies have collaborated to help fight this issue. – HilLesha
I’m happy about this as well. I agree about diapers being expensive. It’s crazy!
Diapers can get very expensive. So happy to see Meijer and Huggies are donating throughout the midwest!
I love it as well. It’s great that they’re doing something to help out.
This is such a great cause. It always makes me glad when I learn about companies or even individuals making a difference.
I agree. I love to hear about things like this too.
That’s higher than I thought it would be. Diapers can definitely get really expensive. I always tried to buy them when they went on sale and would use coupons whenever I could.
Same here. I always tried to save as much as I could with diapers.
