Refugee Baby Carriers

Carry the Future is Distributing Baby Carriers to Syrian Refugees in Greece

— December 5, 2015 — Social Good
With the mass amounts of Syrian refugees in Greece, bringing their children and what little of their lives they can manage over, a nonprofit is outfitting as many as they can with baby carriers to ease the journey.

'Carry the Future' has given out over 3,000 carriers to Syrian refugees in Greece, on the island of Kos -- volunteers outfitting strangers in about two minutes to maximize efficiency. It gives refugees a way to carry their young children across Europe to their new found homes. With children on their backs instead of in their arms, it will help with the physical strain in the journey for mothers and fathers.

The organization is continuously collecting financial donations through IndieGogo as well as donations of soft carriers themselves, like the Ergobaby, Becco or Babybjorn.
Trend Themes
1. Baby Carrier Donations - The trend of donating baby carriers to refugees in need presents an opportunity for businesses to develop innovative and durable carrier designs specifically for displaced families.
2. Efficient Outfitting - The trend of outfitting refugees with baby carriers in a matter of minutes presents an opportunity for businesses to create streamlined and time-efficient methods for distributing essential items to those in need.
3. Physical Strain Reduction - The trend of using baby carriers to reduce physical strain on refugee parents during their journey offers an opportunity for businesses to develop ergonomic and comfortable carrier solutions tailored to the unique needs of displaced families.
Industry Implications
1. Nonprofit Sector - The nonprofit sector can capitalize on the trend of donating baby carriers to refugees by partnering with businesses to drive more impactful and sustainable donation campaigns.
2. Baby Carrier Manufacturing - The baby carrier manufacturing industry can leverage the trend of outfitting refugees with carriers quickly to develop efficient production processes and collaborate with organizations to meet the increasing demand.
3. Humanitarian Aid Logistics - The humanitarian aid logistics industry can take advantage of the trend of reducing physical strain on refugee parents by creating optimized supply chains to ensure timely delivery of baby carriers and other essential items to displaced families.
