Operation “Diaper Drop-off” Completed in Rural Minnesota




When Chevrolet heard the amazing tale of Amanda McBride, the mother who gave birth while driving her 2005 Cobalt to the hospital, the company made Amanda an offer any mother would love – a year's supply of free diapers and other baby supplies.

On Thursday, Chevrolet delivered on its promise, arriving in rural Minnesota in a Chevrolet Tahoe packed with baby supplies.

Joining Chevrolet for operation "Diaper Drop-off" was Safe Kids USA, Chevrolet’s partner in child safety. Because Amanda has three children, including her newborn, who all require child seats, Safe Kids technicians spent an hour with the family, showing them the proper way to install new car seats (donated by Graco) in the Cobalt.


After all three kids were safely buckled in; Chevrolet presented the family with a host of other gifts, including a year's supply of diapers.


"I never thought a big company like Chevrolet would ever pay attention to small town folks like us," Joseph Phillips, the baby's father. "Thank you so much!"
