At PAXbaby’s Birthday Party, #PAXbirthdaybash8, we raised over $1,200 for The Carrying On Project, an amazing non profit organization that distributes carriers to military families! PAXbaby is thrilled to have been a part of this opportunity, and we want to thank ALL our many sponsors for the donations they sent! WAHMs and manufacturers all across the world sent us goodies including Maya Wrap, Ergobaby Carriers, Beco Baby Carriers, Ovolo Wraps, Solly Baby Wraps, Sakura Bloom, Bamberoo and Kowalli!!!!
These Silent Auction Baskets were just extraordinary!

PAXbaby loves to help support the charity organizations that are dear to our hearts, and we have chosen to auction this beautiful set  to benefit Lift Me Up: Babywearing To Thrive. This amazing organization was created by three woman that dream of bringing the gift of babywearing to families of children with special needs.  In order to make this dream a reality, and be able to provide these carriers absolutely free, they need OUR help.

Their mission:

“to serve families who have children with special needs. For these families, we see babywearing as a unique tool that can benefit both the child and the caregiver. Our goal is to be able to provide a babywearing carrier for every desiring family with a child with special needs, across the country!”

The Baby Carrier Industry Alliance needs our support!

There is a lot happening in the small world of the babywearing industry at the moment. New standards are being enacted which will change the way baby carriers are regulated in the US, and ultimately, around the world. The BCIA works tirelessly to provide a voice for businesses, like PAXbaby, and consumers, like YOU, in the creation of this legislation.

The lobbying, the attorneys, traveling to ASTM meetings around the country, representing babywearers and the babywearing industry as a whole does not come cheaply and the BCIA is desperately in need of additional funds so that they can be sure the new standards protect both babywearing and babies!

To learn more about these regulations, please watch this short video:

Understanding Who’s Who in the World of Babywearing Regulations

We are urging all babywearers to consider a direct donation to the BCIA, in the form of membership. Join the BCIA here.

To show our support, in addition to our membership, PAXbaby is hosting an auction through Spot’s Corner, with all funds raised beyond the opening bid going directly to the BCIA.

What are we auctioning, you ask?

This beautiful Girasol Vice Versa *cream* Ring Sling and Slingyroo Bag! These aren’t just any VV, though! These are EXTRA SPECIAL! See that purple stripe, in between the yellow and orange? That’s a bonus stripe, and we all know that more purple is always better!

Bid on this beautiful pair over at Spot’s Corner, and do your part to support the Baby Carrier Industry Alliance!

First of all, we would like to thank EVERYONE for having patience with us as we worked out the kinks on our first  BIG charity auction. EEEK! It was a steep learning curve, and we are happy to say that we all survived!! Sometimes, how you envision something, and how it plays out, doesn’t exactly go the same way….

A BIG thank you to everyone who placed a bid, and to all the winners of PAXbaby’s special Uppymama woven wrap – After Midnight!!

Thank you to Uppymama, for making it possible for us to give back SO much to our communities!

And…

Thank you to PAXmommy Jillian for sharing her beautiful custom with so many people!!

However, the verdict is in!!

We had, TWO, count them, TWO invoices that went unpaid from our round of charity auctions last week!!
