Are you a memeber of the Real Diaper Associtation (RDA)? Do you know what/who RDA is all about? The RDA is a non-profit organization on a quest to change “diapers”, literally one baby at a time! Right now RDA is trying to raise $3500 by August 11! Please help us by making a donation or even better, become a member! The money will help RDA advocate to get more babies in cloth!

FROM RDA:

We come here to you with a request. RDA continues to play a leading role in the cloth diaper movement, training and supporting grassroots advocates to lead local Real Diaper Circles, compiling and distributing research on the subject, working with the media and other businesses and organizations to increase awareness about cloth diapers, and providing direct reliable, unbiased support for consumers. We do all of this with the support of our member donors. If you haven’t contributed to our efforts before, please join us as a member today-annual individual membership is still only $25. Your donation is tax-deductible, and membership ensures that you’ll be kept up-to-date with our work via our quarterly print newsletter. www.realdiaperassociation.org/directory/signup.php

Because we’ve had the good luck to employ an Executive Director over the past year, we’ve been able to accomplish a lot recently . Explore the archives of our blog atwww.realdiaperevents.org for stories about some of most recent accomplishments, such as:

  • the launch of a cloth-diaper-friendly daycare directory and publication of a tip sheet on using cloth diapers in daycare ,
  • a blog carnival focused on Real Diaper Facts that highlighted some of the most useful research out there on the benefits of cloth diapers, and
  • the ongoing 100% reusable cloth diapers campaign to support people and choosing and using real diapers in any situation.

Additionally, there are 15 active Real Diaper Circles and nearly 100 volunteers in training to become Leaders across the U.S. and Canada.

We are convinced that we made the right decision in hiring our Executive Director, and have plans for how to accomplish more in the coming year. In order to do so, we need to continue to fund the Executive Director position and ensure that we have someone in place to push all our efforts forward.

This is the time for cloth diapers for a number of great reasons. You have been supportive in individual advocacy, spreading the message time and again to your friends and acquaintances. Join together with us now and take a larger role in the overall cloth diaper movement. Become a member of the Real Diaper Association today atwww.realdiaperassociation.org/directory/signup.php .

If you can’t become a member, would you please consider giving just a little to help our efforts? We need to raise $3500 in 35 days before our 6th Anniversary on August 11, 2010! We’re confident we can do it. Please help, then spread the word to the other cloth diaperers you know. These contributions, like membership donations, are tax-deductible.

Thank you for all you do on behalf of cloth diapers.

Thirsties Duo Cloth Diaper Giveaway **CLOSED**

Thursday, June 3rd, 2010

I thought we should have another fun giveaway! So here it is, this giveaway is for a Thirsties Duo Diaper, color and size of your Thirsties, Inc is one of my favorite companies and I absolutely love their quality made products. I love their “green” business ethics and what they are doing for our environment!

Their new Duo Diaper is a fabulous “sleeve” diaper. It does have the “pocket” diaper quality, but it has 2 “pockets” so it is more like a sleeve. The sleeve allows for the insert to come out during the wash! It really does work, I was very skeptical at first but it works! It is nice not to have to pull out a dirty insert, your hands really do stay clean! The Duo Diapers comes in two perfect sizes! Size one fits babies from 6 lbs to 18 lbs. Size Two fits babies from 18 lbs to 40 lbs. You can get 6 different sizes from the two sized diapers, it really does grow with your baby! Another feature that I absolutely love about this diaper is the gusset action! The gussets prevent leaks and major blowouts, they are pretty amazing! There are two inserts included with the diaper, a microbfiber insert and a hemp insert which snap together at the ends! I am so surprised at the absorbency, I have been able to get away with just using the two inserts for overnight and no leaks! Usually with a pocket, I have to use a special insert just for overnight! So, safe to safe their inserts impressed me :) ! I am so happy to offer this giveaway to our readers! Good Luck!!!!
