“Every parent loves the moment when her baby is clean and happy in a nice new diaper. However, keeping you child dry and clean costs conservatively about $80 a week.

This weekend, HomeFront organized a drive to collect 1 million diapers. Now comes the task of delivering the diapers to the families who need them.
