You help us with donations.

The most important step in DENA’s work is the very first one: collecting donations from people like you. We rely on your donations to fund our important work.

We buy and collect diaper bags and other essential items.

100% of your donations go to getting diaper bag supplies to immigrants and refugees. We use your contributions to purchase and distribute essential diaper bag supplies - diaper bags, baby wipes, changing pads and more. We rely on volunteers to make sure that every dollar raised is used for supplies.

Our partners distribute the items.

DENA partners with organizations in the Tri-State area (New York, New Jersey and Connecticut), We work mostly with partner organizations (located throughout the Tri-State Area) to reach immigrant and refugee mothers who have a need for our diaper essentials. We ship supplies directly to our partner organizations and sometimes directly to the immigrant/refugee mothers. We seek to work not only with groups focusing specifically on immigrant and refugee services, but also with groups - like churches, synagogues, health centers and doctors - who come into contact with such communities of new Americans.
