Austin Diaper Bank is Expanding!
We have the unique and exciting opportunity to add 1,700 additional square feet to our current warehouse space.
Austin Diaper Bank is on a mission to provide diapers and wipes to our community and neighbors in Central Texas who struggle to afford this basic need, but the demand is greater than we can meet in our existing warehouse space.

This new square footage will allow us to add more areas to efficiently meet all of our needs, including:

Your financial support will help us provide more diapers than ever to babies and families in need.

TAKE A SNEAK PEEK AT OUR NEW SPACE
More space means healthier, happier babies and families.
More Diapers
We will have the space to distribute up to 150,000 diapers each month to 3,000 Central Texas families each month.
More Partners
In 2019, 75 agencies applied to be a partner of the Austin Diaper Bank. Due to space constraints we accepted only 30 partners. More space will allow us to add additional partners in 2021 and beyond.
More Happy Families
Studies show that babies who are left in wet and dirty diapers or who wear reused diapers are at higher risk for infections, long-term illness and even child abuse. When families have the diapers they need each day, babies and parents have less stress and anxiety and can focus on play-time and healthy lifestyles.

- Diapers and wipes are essential for well-being, yet one in three families in our community goes without these basic supplies needed for them to live healthy lives.
- Many families simply cannot afford the monthly cost of diapers(avg. $100/month per child), and no federal or state program provides diapers (note: diapers cannot be purchased with food stamps).
Expanding our warehouse allows us to, increase our impact in Central Texas, creating opportunities for more families to be healthier, happier and more self-sufficient.
