A big thank you goes out to Haven Real Estate for this donation! They hosted a parking lot sale during Eldridge City Wide Garage sales, charging sellers a $10 fee to set up with all proceeds donated to us. What a fun idea!! We hope the sale went well! Thank you for being HEROES for local babies 💙

Our society is like a tightly woven fabric of support systems that help families thrive. When those systems weaken, the fabric starts to fray. Diaper insecurity is a tear in that fabric.

According to The NDBN Diaper Check 2026 report, nearly 1 in 2 U.S. families struggles to afford diapers. Together, we can repair the holes and create strong communities by ensuring families have the basic material necessities we all require to thrive.

A big thank you to GFWC Hampton Rapids Junior Woman's Club for their donation toward our mission. I spoke with this lovely group of ladies last year and love that our mission remains on their hearts 💗 We pull out these funds right to work keeping local babies clean, dry, and healthy!

A huge THANK YOU to The Last Picture House for donating a screening to help us celebrate the end of The World’s Largest Diaper Drive. Everyone was so accommodating and excited for us to be there - we cannot wait to partner with you again!

We had a great time AND we collected a bunch of diapers to benefit local babies 🙌 Thank you to those that attended and watched our favorite throw back pirate movie with us 💗 It certainly was.. Bang-a-Rang!!!

Today, we celebrate the high school graduation of a champion for babies and youth here in the QCA. We are so proud of Veda and thankful for her contributions to Hiney Heroes from the very beginning. We have no doubt that she will continue to make the world a better place wherever she goes.

We're deeply grateful to the Junior Board of Rock Island for bestowing upon us a remarkable $1,200 grant to empower local families in need 💗. This generous funding will allow us to remarkably double our diaper distribution efforts throughout July and August, bringing vital support to families struggling to stay afloat amidst rising costs. We're honored to have such incredible community champions recognizing the profound impact of diapers - not just for babies, but for the financial well-being of entire families - and we're inspired by their kindness.

**Also, they throw one heck of a Mardi-Gras Party 🎉 Check it out next year to help fund grants that benefit children throughout the QCA**
