DiaperDash

Going the Distance to #EndDiaperNeed

About the DiaperDash

Babies & Beyond’s annual DiaperDash is a 5k Run/2 Mile Walk/Kids’ Dash which raises awareness and support for Diaper Need in Wisconsin since 2015. 

In addition to the races, we collect funds and diaper donations on race day to help stock the Diaper Bank shelves.

It’s a fun-run for the whole family!

Why Run? Why Donate?

The goals of the DiaperDash are to:

  • Address Diaper Need in our community
  • Spread the word about Diaper Need Awareness Week in Wisconsin!
  • Support the overall mission of Babies & Beyond

Diaper Need


Babies & Beyond is dedicated to addressing “diaper need” in our community. “Diaper need” refers to the serious problem of getting babies a sufficient supply of diapers. We collect and distribute thousands of free diapers each month in order to help babies in our community to remain clean, dry and healthy.
