The Great Cloth Diaper Change

An event, called the Great Cloth Diaper Change 2011, will take place on Saturday, April 23, 2011 in locations all around the globe and now at a local venue too! The Great Cloth Diaper Change (http://www.greatclothdiaperchange.com) will set a world record for the most cloth diapers ever changed simultaneously. Maplewood-based Green Bean Babies (www.greenbeanbabies.com) and Chatham-based Postpartum Place (www.thepostpartumplace.com) will host a group of local cloth diapering moms & dads to play their part in setting the record.

Green Bean Babies will have cloth diapers available on-site for anyone interested in learning more about modern cloth diapers or in purchasing a diaper to participate in the change. 

This event is part of a larger (and growing) movement. Participants may contribute $1 (or more) at all North American events to benefit the Real Diaper Association, the 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization working to help families across the U.S. and Canada find and use reusable cloth diapers.
