WeeCycle’s Denver7 Everyday Hero

Our very own Dana Ship (aka Poppy) volunteers at WeeCycle week in and week out. He does any and everything, from collecting donations at his home, picking up and dropping off donations, fulfilling partner orders, loading cars to restocking diaper shelves, and taking out the trash. And best of all, he does it with a smile (even if we haven’t been able to see it lately under his mask). Thank you, Molly Hendrickson Denver7, for coming out to the WeeCycle Warehouse to honor and celebrate Dana!
In case you missed it, you can view it now.

Women’s Lobby of Colorado

WeeCycle is excited to be a stakeholder alongside the Women’s Lobby of Colorado for this critical bill to provide $2 million this year and $2 million next year for diapering essentials to support Colorado families with infants and toddlers in need!

Thank you to Senator Brittany Pettersen, Senator Jesse Danielson, Representative Kerry Tipper,
and Representative Serena Gonzales-Gutierrez for standing up for Colorado moms, families and children! Sign on to show your support of this important bill.

Thank you Snug for sponsoring WeeCycle’s Mobile Baby Essentials distribution last week! With your support we were able to serve 271 Colorado children with diapers, wipes, baby food and formula! In three hours we distributed 12,070 diapers. Together “Wee” can make a difference.

If you are interested in sponsoring our Mobile Baby Essentials program, please contact Karyn White, WeeCycle Development Director at [email protected] or 720-985-7264
