Want to Help?

Hello to all of our readers!!

Thank you for taking interest in this cause! We need YOU! Below are some ideas I am throwing out and have gotten from friends as well!! Start thinking about ways you can contribute! From small to large...every effort is much needed and much appreciated!

*Post this link and write a post about this cause! Spread the word! Talk to friends!

*Talk to any groups you are a member of and let the members know about this effort! If you are a service organization or want to start a service project then start brainstorming on ways you can raise awareness and collect donations. There is a Girl Scout Troop in Idaho working on a diaper drive to be held early 2009! Go Girls!!

*If you have kids or work with kids get them involved!! Kids love to help and are very enthusiastic contributors! Have them start a change collection or hold their own bake sale or lemonade stand...every little bit helps!!!

*Ask friends and family for any leftover diapers they may be storing and will not use. We will collect all diapers...even the stragglers without a package!

*Set up a collection bin at your place of work, school, church, store, etc! Let people know you accept all baby care items! Also let them know they they can donate by credit or debit cards online at dollarsfordiapers.blogspot.com through Pay Pal.

*Start on auction or donation effort on your own blog! Hold a giveaway for your readers...say whoever donates to Dollars for Diapers will be entered into a drawing for a prize of your choosing. Post items you have made or purchased or collected and start the bidding! I have seen this work very, very well on many, many blogs! Have the winners of the auction pay for the item by using the Pay Pal link on this blog and just show a receipt or conformation to you.

***Just Open Your Mouth!*** Talk it up...make this cause well known and get people interested in helping!

These are just a handful of ideas! If you have ideas you want to throw out please do! Leave us a comment!! Thanks Again for your interest and support!! Little bums around the country will be thanking you!
