Dear Friend,
My 2-year old successfully used the potty for 4 days last week! I could
not be more excited – not just because this means she’s hit another
milestone. But I’m most excited about ditching diapers and putting that
money toward groceries and student loan payments!

healthy development,” you’ll stop price gouging.
Inflation may be slowing down but Procter & Gamble, Pampers’ parent
company, surely is not. The cost of Pampers rose by 7% last quarter and
CEO of P&G, Jon Moeller, suggests more price hikes are to come!^1 This
price hike comes right after the National Diaper Bank Network released
their most recent data that 1 in 2 U.S. families is struggling to provide
enough diapers to keep a baby or toddler clean, dry, and healthy!^2 [ [link removed] ]ONE
in TWO! Our families have been through so much and Pampers is adding
insult to injury all in the name of corporate greed!
Pampers, we know you like to think that your ish don’t stink, but
hardworking parents are paying the price – and we’re not going to let you
get over on us!
It’s National Diaper Need Awareness Week, September 18th - 24th, a time to
uplift the struggle of U.S. families to afford diapers, a basic necessity
– and for us to collectively push for meaningful solutions.

Diaper need has serious ramifications for families. In fact, diaper need
contributes to babies having increased painful rashes and urinary
infections resulting in increased trips to the ER and doctor visits.
Diaper need means 3 in 5 parents are missing school or work because they
cannot afford the diapers required for childcare, resulting in loss of
crucial wages.^2 Diapers are absolutely essential to a baby’s physical and
emotional wellbeing and for families’ economic security.
Parents are trying to make miracles with their budget and major diaper
companies, like Pampers, are seeing their highest earnings in decades!
Over the course of the pandemic, Pampers’ CEO saw a compensation increase
of $10 MILLION DOLLARS.^3 Price gouging parents is bad for business and
bad for babies.
Pampers says they’re “dedicated to every baby’s happy, healthy
development,” but they’re taking advantage of inflation, the pandemic, and
families to increase prices and their profits. Diapers are a basic need –
hiking prices to line executive pockets is wrong and parents have had
ENOUGH!
[ [link removed] ]Sign now! - We will deliver the message straight to the Pampers CEO:
Parents deserve BETTER! Pampers must practice what they preach and
actually support the healthy development of babies by providing affordable
access to diapers. This National Diaper Need Awareness Week, support
parents by [ [link removed] ]adding your name to our letter to Pampers’ CEO, Jon Moeller,
telling him to return diapers to an affordable price!
Together we are a powerful voice,
