Building better futures from the bottom up.
One in three U.S. families struggle to provide enough diapers to keep a baby or toddler clean, dry, and healthy. We invite you to join us as we strive to make a difference within our community, one diaper at a time.
Our volunteers are the best!!
How you can help.

Host a diaper drive
Organize a diaper drive to make a positive impact! Get your friends, family, colleagues and fellow community members involved to help collect diapers for babies in need!
We’ve distributed over
500,000
diapers so far and this is just the beginning!
Why diapers?
Diapers are not covered by government safety net programs like food stamps, Medicaid, and WIC.
Not having enough diapers, unfortunately, means parents are forced to leave their child in a soiled diaper for longer periods of time. This will lead to diaper rash and infections.
57% of parents missed work or school because they were unable to provide the required diapers to their child care center.
Our mission.
To improve the community’s social, economic, and health outcomes by providing access to basic hygiene products for those who need them most.
Our vision.
For every baby's cry to be met with a clean diaper and help every parent to be equipped to fully participate in life no matter what.
You all never cease to inspire us.
We can’t begin to tell you how much we appreciate all the support our community has offered and continues to offer. Our team is proud to call Dayton home and we are excited to see what the future has in store, especially with all the passionate people stepping up to help.
Taking action
Keep an eye out for upcoming events! Our team puts the fun in fundraising initiatives. We find new ways to unlock funds that allow us to pursue our mission to provide sustainable access to diapers while empowering and educating our community.
