KNOXVILLE TEAM CHALLENGE 2026
Every September, communities across Tennessee come together for one common goal: helping ensure every child has access to clean diapers.
Helping Mamas Team Challenge is an annual community giving competition that brings together businesses, schools, civic groups, faith communities, neighborhood organizations, families, and friends to collect diapers and raise funds for local children and families experiencing diaper need.
From September 1 through October 2, teams compete in friendly leagues while making a meaningful impact in their communities. Whether you're collecting diapers, raising funds online, or doing both, every contribution helps provide an essential resource that many families struggle to afford.
Every diaper collected helps Helping Mamas provide families with the essentials they need to keep babies healthy, comfortable, and thriving.
A RACE TO CLOSE THE DIAPER GAP
An estimated 120 million diapers are needed each year for children in low-income households across Tennessee. That's the challenge, and Team Challenge is how our community comes together to close the gap.
Every September, businesses, schools, civic groups, faith communities, families, and friends, come together for Helping Mamas Team Challenge. A friendly competition to collect diapers and raise funds for local children and families experiencing diaper need.
In 2025 alone, 20 teams collected 45,000 diapers and raised $3,000 for local families.
