The lack of a sufficient supply of diapers to keep a baby clean, dry and healthy. 5.3 million children in the U.S. aged three or younger live in poor or low-income families. 1 in 3 American families reports experiencing diaper need. There is currently no public assistance program that covers the purchase of diapers.
A family’s access to a reliable supply of clean diapers reduces the risk of disease, improves the baby’s health and comfort, and enables the baby’s participation in early care and education programs. With access to diapers, parents can place children in childcare and get education or go to work.
Our diapers come from donations, diaper drives and donated money, with which we purchase diapers wholesale. Do you want to help? Please donate!
