Whether you donate dollars, diapers, or time, you can make a difference for the 1 in 2 babies suffering from diaper need.

What is National Diaper Need Awareness Week?

According to National Diaper Bank Network Diaper Check 2023, 47% of U.S. families suffers from diaper need - the inability to keep their baby clean, dry, and healthy. Currently, no government programs assist specifically with the cost of diapers which leaves many families in crisis. In 2023, we distributed more than 407,000 diapers to babies in our community.

As a member of the National Diaper Bank Network, Legacy Parenting Center and more than 225 diaper banks across the country participate in National Diaper Need Awareness Week every year. The goal is to raise awareness about diaper need and the good work that diaper banks do to help parents obtain this basic necessity for their children. Through media outreach, local diaper drives, and financial contributions, we can work together to combat diaper need.

Get involved

Donate Diapers.

Host a diaper drive at your business or drop diapers and wipes at the center.

Volunteer to Package Diapers.

We distribute diapers in packs of 25, each one carefully packed by volunteers. With more than 35,000 diapers being distributed to babies each month, this is an important job. Whether you want to help as an individual or as a small group, we have a place for you.

Shop our Amazon Wish List.

Our greatest need for diapers is size 4, 5, 6, 7 and Pull-ups size 3/4. You can shop our Amazon Wishlist and the order will be delivered directly to the center.

Thank you to our 2023 participating locations that collected diapers and wipes for babies in our community!
