Changing Lives One Diaper at a Time

Helping families in need access diapers since 2018

Our Mission: Improving the health and dignity of Mid-Missouri families by providing sustainable access to diapers and period products.

What Is Diaper Need?

A basic need.

Clean diapers are a basic need of every baby and toddler. Diapers are not covered by government safety net programs like food stamps, Medicaid, and WIC.

A growing problem in our country.

A clean diaper means a happy baby, but according to new data from The NDBN Diaper Check 2023: Diaper Insecurity among U.S. Children and Families, 1 in 2 Missouri families cannot afford enough diapers to keep their infant or child clean, dry, and healthy.

Can result in additional hardships for parents.

3 in 5 parents miss work or school because they can’t afford the diapers required to leave their baby in Childcare.

Leads to vulnerability.

Diaper need can make babies more vulnerable to painful rashes and urinary tract infections and have more trips to the doctor.

What is Period Poverty?

A struggle for some.

2 in 5 people struggle to purchase period supplies due to lack of income.

A financial burden.

Having a period is not a luxury, but they are taxed like one.

Can lead to missed opportunities.

No student should have to miss school, no adult should have to miss work, and no person should have to miss out on daily life because they are unable to afford the basic necessities they require.
