A Hand Up-NOVA, Inc.

Goal: $10,000.00

Specific Need

We are humbly reaching out with an exciting opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the lives of struggling families with babies in our community.

A Hand Up-NOVA, Inc. (The NOVA Diaper Bank), an all-volunteer organization, has been dedicated to delivering diapers and essential diapering supplies. Since 2017, we have reached a significant milestone of providing 1.1 million diapers to families with babies in need. To date, we've served 34,101 children! Your support has been far-reaching, helping the most vulnerable young children! 

Adequate diapers play a crucial role in a baby's life for several essential reasons:

  1. Comfort and Well-Being: Diapers keep babies dry and comfortable, providing a barrier against wetness and potential skin irritation. This is vital for their emotional and physical well-being and ensures they remain content and happy.

  2. Health and Hygiene: Proper diapering helps maintain good hygiene, preventing diaper rash and severe infections. Babies have sensitive skin, and keeping them dry reduces the risk of discomfort and medical/health issues.

  3. Mobility and Development: Comfortable babies are more likely to explore and move freely. Diapers allow unrestricted movement, supporting a baby's physical development and encouraging them to engage in various activities without discomfort.

  4. Sleep Quality: A dry diaper contributes to a baby's uninterrupted sleep. Quality sleep is crucial for their growth, development, and overall health.

  5. Convenience for Parents/Caregivers: Diapers make caregiving more convenient for parents and caregivers. They simplify maintaining cleanliness and ensure babies can be cared for efficiently, especially on the go.

  6. Parental Peace of Mind: Knowing that a baby is dry and comfortable in a clean diaper provides parents with peace of mind. It allows them to focus on nurturing their child without constant worry about potential discomfort or health issues related to inadequate diapering.

Diapers are not just a convenience but a fundamental necessity for a baby's health, comfort, and overall development. They contribute significantly to the child's well-being and their parents/caregivers, making them an indispensable part of early childhood care.

Imagine the positive ripple effect your contribution could have, ensuring that parents and caregivers have the necessary resources to care for their little ones. Every dollar you donate is critical, allowing us to continue our vital work in the Loudoun County community.

Your kindness and support, no matter the amount, will bring us one step closer to assisting families. Thank you for considering this opportunity to make a change from the bottom up! 

Mission

"A Hand Up-NOVA, Inc. (The NOVA Diaper Bank) is humbled and proud to deliver diapers and diapering supplies to parent liaisons and social workers in the public school system, churches, and other organizations whose work brings them into contact with struggling families with babies in need of diaper assistance.

Profile

Did you know that half of all families struggle to provide diapers for their babies? 

The impact is profound. Babies left in soiled diapers for extended periods may face an increased risk of child abuse. Moreover, insufficient diapers can lead to serious health consequences for both infants and young children, affecting not only their physical and emotional well-being but also their families' ability to work or attend school.

Here's where you can make a difference! Be a part of the solution by making a monetary donation during Give Choose! Early giving begins on March 5, and GiveChoose Day on March 19. 

Remember, every baby matters, and your support is crucial to sustaining the vital work of our diaper bank. Let's keep babies healthy, safe, and happy. 

A Hand Up-NOVA, Inc. (The NOVA Diaper Bank) currently delivers 20,000 - 25,000 diapers monthly to Loudoun County resources and agencies.  Since July 2017, A Hand Up - NOVA, Inc. (The NOVA Diaper Bank) has delivered over 1.1 million diapers to families in need in Loudoun County, helping over 34,000 children. Every baby matters, and we humbly ask for your support to continue the critical work diaper banks do to keep babies healthy, safe, and happy. Together, we are making a change from the bottom up!
