Testimonials
I can't tell you how happy I am to see an organization like the Detroit Area Diaper Bank out there.  The need for diapers is so great, especially when so many people are struggling these days and there are no public assistance programs that help with diapers.  The Detroit Area Diaper Bank has delivered over 15,000 diapers to Starfish and has helped over 100 families.  Our families are very grateful for what Marybeth has done for them!

After hearing about the Diaper Bank, we sent in an application.  It sounded too good to be true so I had a let's wait and see attitude.  True to her word, Marybeth delivered the diapers on the scheduled date!  Since then, we had a shortage of a particular size and I emailed a note to Marybeth again.  She didn't have any at that time but not more than a week later, she said she had some from a donor in that size.  The Detroit Area Diaper Bank has really helped our center to be able to give diapers to women who need them.  We really appreciate the resource.

We appreciate our partnership with the diaper bank.  As families cannot purchase diapers and other baby items with the Bridge Card, the Diaper Bank meets a basic need in our community.

The Detroit Area Diaper Bank donated over 600 diapers to  our annual Baby Shower/Moms Workshop in Westland on 9/11 of this year.  We had almost 50 [homeless and low-income] moms.  We can't say enough about how thankful the moms were about the gifts, diapers and information they received ...  It takes a community to raise our babies and children.  Thank You to "The Detroit Area Diaper Bank"  for caring and giving.

The Diaper Bank has been very helpful to us.  Many of our clients with babies are unable to afford diapers so we are able to supply them.  God bless your work.

As a Food Bank that serves many young families, we find ourselves in constant need of diapers.  Diapers are one of the most expensive products we purchase, and it has been a blessing to partner with the Detroit Area Diaper Bank in supplying our youngest clients with diapers at no cost to our organization.  This allows us to spend our funds on much needed food items.  We are very grateful for the Detroit Area Diaper Bank.

Our baby diaper needs vary both by size and quantity depending on our Emergency Housing population and our non-Residential Client needs.  It's wonderful to be able to be specific about current needs, and to have DADB respond quickly! Your free program allows us to provide the families of domestic violence whom we serve, with diapers, on our limited budget, while they deal with their healing process.
