A friend of mine told me about this Foundation after hearing how I wanted to switch to cloth diapering but couldn't afford it bc we are a one income family. I'm so glad we applied, we are only on day three of our journey and so far it's been successful.

A few months ago I was unable to buy diapers for my 8-month-old baby, I called Diaper Foundation and they help me with a lot of diapers and wipes. Diaper Foundation helps a lot of moms I definitely recommend if you are in a bad situation call them they really help. God Bless Diaper Foundation.

Without this wonderful program I seriously don’t know how I could be getting through at times like these. This has provided me with help so I can get myself in a better spot financially while helping to do something to help the world/earth! I spread the word about the the Rebecca foundation cloth diaper loan program to other who may benefit and share the love. Thanks so much and I wish more people can know about them so we can make a difference for more in so many ways! Thanks for the fluff love

The Rebecca foundation helped my family tremendously by providing us with cloth diapers. There was a variety of diapers, so I could learn which ones I like the best and which ones work best for my little one. It was a wonderful experience and I appreciate it very much. There's even Facebook groups to help answer questions because they don't just provide cloth diapers, they also want you to succeed. It's a loan program and when I returned them I was very proud to be able to donate more than I borrowed. The Rebecca Foundation touched my heart so much I also donate money when I can.

I am so thankful for The Rebecca Foundation! We couldn't afford to get started with cloth diapers but TRF enabled us to use them. I love not having to buy a bunch of disposables, and also love not filling landfills with diapers. Thank you so much to all the people who make this possible!

Such an amazing foundation. With out it my family would not be able to cloth diaper our little one and we would have to struggle to find a way to buy diapers for him each month. Everyone that volunteers their time are angles in my book. They always answer any questions you have and go way above and beyond what anyone would expect. I am so very greatful that this program exist.

What can I tell you about the Rebecca Foundation? I have too much to say! I love the Foundation. I applied last year around December for my son who is 2. Within a few days I met Kristen, the RI chapter president to pick up my borrowed stash. I tried cloth before and failed, we had rashes and was too hard to wash. But now, I am an expert, or at least I think I am. I am even an expert on HE washing machines. Hahaha. Kristen is a great support member and is still teaching me to this date about cloth diapering.. and now trainers!! Yep, now I am loaned cloth trainers with my son! Filled out application again only because I was closed after diapers and super fast service again! Over weekend even!! They are free, helpful, and definitely worth contacting if you are sick of paying for diapers and did I mention wipes? No need to waste money on wipes, use cloth wipes. Toss in diaper and toss both in wet bag and you are done. I could seriously talk all day to you about this foundation but I think there might be a limit on letters. Haha. Anyways, free, who doesn't love free? I know I do. Especially since I just got in a car acccident and have to rent a car, then buy new car, how would I still have bought diapers for my son if I was in this situation with the accident and spending money on diapers! Oh man. I don't have to. I wash my diapers and wipes. And if you are using laundromat you can still do it! Just ask your chapter president and they will help you with every step. I hope you love them just as much as I do!

TRFCDC was able to help me convert to cloth full time, and within just a few months I had enough saved to invest in some cloth of my own. Without TRFCDC I would had struggled to get funds together.

Diapers are returned once they are no longer needed and passed on to another family who can use them! How smart is that?! I so admire the Founder and volunteers. Thank you for everything!

The Rebecca Foundation has helped my family by allowing us to cloth diaper our youngest son in a time of extreme financial hardship. My husband works, while I stay at home due to a disability that prevents me from working. With 2 children and only one income, buying disposable diapers, especially name brand (huggies or Pampers) due to our sons allergic reactions to the cheaper ones, was difficult for us. Being loaned cloth diapers was a god send, and allowed us to spend what we were spending on diapers, and diaper rash creams, on other necessities.

This program was such a god send!!! I didn't know that cloth diapers were still being produced when I found TRFCDC. When i began my cloth diaper journey, i had 2 children under the age of 2 and diapering them was getting expensive. My son has very sensitive skin and disposables caused constant diaper rash, I was at a loss for what to do! I'm proud to say, since starting to cloth diapers (almost 2 years ago) my son has yet to have a single rash!! Without TRFCDC, I would never have been able to save up to build my own stash. Thank you TRFCDC so much!!!!

I'm so grateful my friend told me about this program because it has allowed us to take good care of our newborn's bum. He had a diaper rash when we first got the diaper package and it healed up much more quickly with the cloth than when we were using disposables. It is saving us money and allowing us to figure out what types of diapers we like best so we can slowly build up our own stash so that someone else can get use out of these loaned diapers when they are in need. Plus, the cloth diapers we got in our package were adorable. My chapter president has been so helpful & the videos on the website have taught me so much about the difference between the different types of diapers and how to care for them. Thanks Rebecca Foundation for empowering so many people in need to give the best to their babies!

Without the Rebecca Foundation my family would be struggling trying to afford disposable diapers. Luckily for us, I was told about the Rebecca Foundation right as things were getting tough for us. Applying was not hard like I thought it would be and they got back to me quicker than I was expecting. They reached out to me personally to ask about my LO to make sure they sent me the right size diapers and told me when they were going to ship the diapers to me. I was shocked at how fast they did everything. Everyone I have talked to was super nice to me and I could tell they really wanted to help.

I am a first time mom and enjoy being able to use cloth since I found out that my little one is sensitive to disposables (used them till cord fell off). Through the foundation I have been able to get support on how to use the different cloth diaper systems and ideas on how to make my own. Because of the help I have received I have made wool covers and begun to buy a few diapers.

The Rebecca Foundation is amazing! I have nothing but great things to say!

I signed up and was approved and the journey has been wonderful! I've been able to keep my baby rash free and save money to build my very own "stash" the videos you watch in the beginning help so much and eases the transitional fear, I now am finding myself helping others into the world of cloth, and always recommend The rebecca foundation to anyone I know struggling between diapers and bills.

Rebecca Foundation is helping us to be able to transition into using cloth diapers. It is far from easy to get start it is expensive and so much to learn about. We got our diapers in December. I found this look over the internet on ways to start since we were dealing with skin sensitivity. We had tried all kinds of diapers nothing worked. Then I came across this probably within the next month or so I will be able to return my diapers. Without this I don't think we would of been able to make the transition.

Without this organization I don't know where we would be in terms of diapering our children. My youngest had a bad reaction to disposables and we could no longer afford to buy them. It was coming to down to having to choose between what bills to pay and food to buy. I had heard about The Rebecca Foundation through a friend and thought I would try it out. Nearly a year later both my kids are in cloth and thanks to the foundation I'm able to save money to buy my own cloth diapers. I plan on donating what I buy back to this organization. The volunteers are so helpful and if I have any issues they're an email away. There is also an amazing online support group of families who are there to help and talk to.
