As a part of Lil Helper’s commitment to giving back to our community, we will be donating $10 from the sale of each Rainbow Baby charcoal cloth diaper to a group of charities.

“I have a God Daughter that spent some time in London hospital and will forever have to be monitored through many doctors there. I think of all the Mom's and Dad's who are sent there to have their Angel Baby's or who have to say their last goodbyes to their Baby's in those rooms.” - Codi G.

“While my baby never made it past the first trimester, there are many born tiny or sick. I have two older children and if I had to spend time in a hospital with my baby or child, I know the hotel bills would cripple me. This charity takes that ease off of families and gives them a home to stay at while their sick children are in the hospital. It is an absolute God send to families.” - Brooke B.
