San Diego: Are You Going To Cruise for the Cause?

We’re so grateful to Xavier the X-Man for including our cause in his annual benefit car show in San Diego. A portion of the proceeds from T Shirt sales, as well as a portion of the day’s sales from our friends at Pachuca Cosmetics, will benefit our local diaper program. Shout out to Alicia for making the magic happen!

She arrived pregnant, with two young children, a leaving her husband who had beat her badly, possibly causing her to deliver her baby prematurely. The shelter helped place her in a transitional housing apartment and her children are doing well. Regarding the assistance of donated diapers, she says “I spend approximately $50.00 a month in diapers and wipes alone. Being able to save that money and use it for other bills makes a big help. I can’t thank you enough for the help, to some people it might be just diapers, but to me is being able to not just get by month by month. I am an ambitious woman. I work hard to provide a good future for my children, and any help I can get is always much appreciated.”
