<p><strong><span style="font-size: large;">Miracle Diapers Is Now <a href="http://www.clothdiaperfoundation.org/">The Cloth Diaper Foundation</a></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">empowering families, improving the environment</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">As Miracle Diapers has grown so has the number of families they assist. In 2009, they helped over 450 babies directly, more than 100 babies through sponsorship and local distribution, and assisted other charities with the same mission as well!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">To better serve those families Miracle Diapers reaccessed it&#8217;s structure and practices. They have:</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">• </span><span style="font-size: small;">New leadership with Roxanna Jolly—CEO and Lisa Johnston—Operations Manager and Board Chair</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">• </span><span style="font-size: small;">Relocated their headquarters to Katy, Texas</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">• </span><span style="font-size: small;">Restructured  how they process and accept applications</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">• </span><span style="font-size: small;">Opened a <a href="http://shop.miraclediapers.org/" target="_blank">retail store for fundraising</a></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">• </span><span style="font-size: small;">Founded a new membership program</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">• </span><span style="font-size: small;">Welcomed several new board members from the cloth diapering industry</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">In it&#8217;s fifth year Miracle Diapers wants to continue moving forward and has decided to take on a new name that better describes the organization and it&#8217;s mission.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">Miracle Diapers is now <a href="http://clothdiaperfoundation.org/" target="_blank">The Cloth Diaper Foundation.</a></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">“</span><span style="font-size: small;">We felt that a more appropriate name would help the community have a better understanding of who we are, as we have often been mistaken for a diaper manufacturer. Our desire to move forward and build a  legacy of support for the cloth diapering community will be reflected in our new name: The Cloth Diaper Foundation.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> -Roxanna Jolly, CEO, <a href="http://www.clothdiaperfoundation.org/" target="_blank"><strong>The Cloth Diaper Foundation</strong></a></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">Monetary donations fell last year do to the economy. Which means there are more families out there for </span><span style="font-size: x-small;">The Cloth Diaper Foundation to help! While diaper donations are always appreciated, we must be able to financially support organizational growth.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000099; font-size: small;">To assist in fund raising efforts, in the month of February, Tracy Whittemore and Lisa Adkins from The Cloth Diaper Company have so graciously offered to match, product for product, each Cloth Diaper Company product sold (Drybees, Wahmies, Rocky Mountain Diapers) in The Cloth Diaper Foundation Retail Store with an equal donation to our organization.  (Example &#8211; Purchase a Rocky Mountain Diapers OS Pocket, CDC will donate our organization a RMD OS Pocket, Drybees for Drybees, etc.)<strong></p>
<p></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">Let&#8217;s make this happen together and spread the CD love.  Visit </span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://clothdiaperfoundation.org/" target="_blank">http://clothdiaperfoundation.org</a> today to find out how you can help! </span> </span></p>
