Our Mission

Why we exist

One Change Away Foundation is a Cleveland-based infant outreach nonprofit committed to closing the diaper gap for local families by supplying a variety of diapers to pediatric offices, partnering with daycares that serve low-income neighborhoods, and hosting community diaper drives outside of the welfare office, WIC office, and other high-traffic support hubs across our city so that every Cleveland baby can stay clean, healthy, and cared for while their parents keep working, learning, and building a stronger future.

How we work

Three ways in

Healthcare

Pediatric Partners

Stocking supplies at Cleveland pediatric offices so families can pick up diapers at well-baby visits โ€” no extra trip, no extra questions.

Childcare

Daycare Support

Delivering emergency diaper reserves to low-income daycares so no child is sent home for a shortage a parent can't cover.

Community

Community Drives

Hosting drives outside the WIC office, welfare office, and other high-traffic support hubs on Cleveland's east and west sides.
