Did you know the US government sometimes uses the "Waffle House Index" to measure the severity of natural disasters? We here at Care Collective use the "Cardboard Index." It's a general measure of "badness" based on how much cardboard we have.

Just this morning, we received over 126,000 diapers from Huggies! Because of the generosity of Huggies, Loaves and Fishes, and @diapernetwork.bsky.social, we've got enough diapers to, hopefully, last us through the year.
