Families receiving diapers from Little Essentials were interviewed as part of a larger, national study of the economic impact of diaper banks. The study found that when families receive diapers, more families are able to work or attend school, health care spending is reduced, and children are healthier. Little Essentials provides diapers at no cost to families experiencing diaper need: the inability to provide a sufficient supply of diapers to keep a baby clean, dry, and healthy. According to The NDBN Diaper Check 2023, 1 in 2 families struggles to afford diapers. With the help of our donors we can help families achieve self-sufficiency.

This Giving Tuesday, we invite you to join us and double the impact as we work to end diaper insecurity in Hunterdon County. Through the generosity of a board member at United Way of Hunterdon County, we have been challenged to match their gift of $1000, the estimated cost of a one-year supply of diapers for one child. Every $25 donated ensures we have 60 more diapers to distribute to the community. Together, we can double our impact by providing diapers for families in need within Hunterdon County. If you would like to contribute, please donate here: https://ow.ly/cP2G50QbFoZ What is diaper insecurity? It is the inability to provide a sufficient supply of diapers to keep a baby clean, dry and healthy. According to data collected by United for ALICE, 317 children under the age of two in Hunterdon County are living in a household facing this challenge. These families are faced with difficult choices as they navigate how to afford the basics of housing, food, childcare, health care, technology, and transportation. Based on the National Diaper Bank Study of Diaper Insecurity, Health and Economic Mobility in the U.S., receiving diapers allows families to work, attend school, reduce healthcare spending, and keep children healthier. #GivingTuesday #DiaperInsecurity #EndDiaperInsecurity #CommunitySupport #Donate #SupportFamilies #DoubleTheImpact #MatchingGift #HunterdonHygieneConnection #UnitedWay #UnitedWayOfHunterdonCounty #CommunityImpact #ALICE

In 2023, we served 4,053 meals to our youth. Every night, we make delicious, hot meals before our evening programs. This is because many of our youth grow up (and still are) food insecure. In other words, they aren’t always sure where they’re next meal is coming from. Take 5 seconds to imagine that. When we’re concerned about our survival, it’s harder to make positive choices.

I will soon be taking part in Cash for Kids ‘Survive The Wild’. For some local children their school dinner is the only hot meal of the day. During the holidays struggling families simply can't afford enough food, so they're often eating unhealthy options or even nothing at all.   We want to make sure these children have enough to eat. Money raised will help reach out, with fun activities and that important meal during the holidays.   Did you know: 💔1 in 4 families with children struggle to afford food 💔1 in 10 UK 15 year olds have missed meals because of poverty 💔40% of working households were classed as food insecure in 2023 💔2.4 million children recieve free school meals across the UK There is still time for you to help us make a difference: 💚£5.50 could provide drinks, snacks and a meal for one child. 💙£11.95 could provide a one-day experience and a meal for one child. 🧡£51.66 could provide one child with a place at a five-day sports club. If you can spare a pound or two it would be really appreciated, it’s a great cause! #CashForKids #SurviveTheWild #fundraising #charity   https://lnkd.in/extV2YdM

Within the next year there will be a general election.      The UK has a chance to be best the place in the world to grow up. But right now, it isn’t. In the last few years children are facing more challenges. There are more babies going without support from health visitors. More children growing up in poverty - 4.2 million to be exact. And more young people waiting months on a mental health waiting list.    But it doesn’t have to be this way.   That’s why we, the UK’s five leading children’s charities – Action for Children, Barnardo's, The Children's Society, the National Children's Bureau and NSPCC – have come together. Supported by more than 130 organisations from the voluntary and community sectors, we want to make sure the next government has a plan to make decisions for babies, children and young people and put Children at the Table.   Will you join us?   In less time than it takes to boil a kettle, you can sign our petition and ask the next Prime Minister and Chancellor to be a champion for children.    https://lnkd.in/eJEHicpn   #ChildrenAtTheTable #ChildrensCharities #CampaignsForChildren #Charity
