RICHMOND, Va. — It’s been a while since Chris Beach changed diapers on a regular basis, but the father of four still remembers the stakes very well.
“I got it done; let’s put it that way, and with four boys, you had to be pretty quick because you never know what might be coming back your way,” Beach said with a grin. “From the very get go, if dad’s there, dad changes that first diaper and it’s the nastiest one there is.”
Beach leads the Fatherhood Foundation of Virginia.
On Saturday, his organization has a big mission; they have nearly 50,000 diapers to give away to fathers in Central Virginia for free.
“We’re calling this ‘dad change diapers too’ because we do, and we want to make sure that dads are getting recognized for taking an active role in the lives of their children. So what better way in these times right now where things might be a little bit tighter than to give dads an entire month’s worth of diapers provided by Everylife,” Beach said.
