Do it again, MDB. (I dare you)

Hello Friends,
I'm writing to you at 4 a.m. I've been processing after a long day of sorting through an appointment that I had today.
I'm not the only one awake tonight. I'm not the only one processing.
Imagine yourself a young mother preparing dinner while waiting for your husband to come home. You look out the kitchen window and see a wall of flames coming over the hill on a straight path to your house. You have less than 5 minutes to shut off the stove, grab your purse and get in the car and flee...with your baby. You drive away, not knowing exactly where you are going, into bumper to bumper traffic on a road bordered on both sides by fire.
That's what has happened in California. As a result of the most destructive wildfires on record, evacuees who fled their homes are searching for a place to stay, food and comfort.
And somewhere mothers with infants are without diapers.
Diapers are not typically part of disaster relief packages. Formula, clothing, food, and water will come. Diapers are a little harder to come by.
A year ago this board donated diapers/money to victims of Hurricane Harvey.

Baby2Baby is a non-profit organization in California that is working as I type this to get diapers and other necessities into the hands of parents to meet the needs of young children.

Do it again, MDB. Take your Starbucks money and throw it at Baby2Baby and let's get those little baby bottoms clean and covered.
I flippin' dare you.
