Thus, Baby Buggy was born.” [2] In April 2016, Baby Buggy renamed to GOOD+ Foundation to better communicate its model: pairing donations of essential children’s and family items with transformational programs. The combination of its goods and partner services is the idea behind the migration to Good+.[3] GOOD+ Foundation grants donations of products and services to programs that have demonstrated a capacity to address family poverty in three focus areas: supporting new mothers, investing in early childhood and engaging fathers. Through the generous support of donors and volunteers, GOOD+ Foundation has donated over $50M worth of items through its partner network across the United States. Over $6M of GOOD+ Foundation’s annual budget is made up of in-kind product donations from individuals and corporations. Financial support for the organization comes through its board of directors, the Friends of GOOD+ NY and LA groups, other private individuals, corporations and foundations. Since 2014, 90 cents of every dollar received by Baby Buggy went straight to programs.[4] The organization has been rated 4-Stars by Charity Navigator for five consecutive years and received national accreditation from the Better Business Bureau Wise Giving Alliance.
