Small Bundles. Big Impact.

Every diaper matters. A single bundle of 50 diapers can help keep a baby clean, healthy, and safe — while helping parents stay at work, reduce financial stress, and avoid costly medical visits.

In the first quarter of 2026 alone, the Diaper Bank of the Inland Empire distributed 71,180 diapers to 475 children in our community.

But diaper need remains one of the most overlooked hardships facing families with young children.

Diaper Need Is a Public Health Issue

Diaper insecurity affects child health, family stability, and economic mobility.

A 2026 study published in the Maternal and Child Health Journal found that diaper insecurity costs society nearly $4.5 billion annually due to increased health care costs and lost wages for working parents.

Families without enough diapers are more likely to experience: severe diaper rash, emergency medical visits, missed work and barriers to child care.

The Solution Works

Diaper banks create measurable community impact.

Research from the National Diaper Bank Network found:

Every $1 invested in diaper distribution creates $2 in community savings.

Diaper banks help prevent more than 46,000 cases of severe diaper rash annually.

Every $30 gift helps deliver a bundle of 50 diapers to families in need — covering not only the diapers themselves, but also the transportation, storage, staffing, and supplies required to get them into the hands of local children.
