Diaper Need

in Idaho communities.

Nearly half of Idaho’s babies live in families struggling to make ends meet. Diapers can cost upwards of $100 every month for one child. There are no local, state or federal subsidies (WIC, SNAP)  for diapers – a basic necessity for babies. Tough decisions are being made in these households. Do we buy food or diapers, or pay our rent or utility bills?

Idaho Diaper Bank has been partnering with local nonprofits assisting families in need to cover bottoms and fill the diaper gap in the Treasure Valley since 2014.

Not having an adequate supply of diapers can cause adverse effects not only for the health of the baby but also mental health of the parents.

Childcare facilities won’t accept children without a supply of disposable diapers.

$10 can help keep a baby dry for a month.

By giving families something as simple as a diaper, we give them a glimpse of hope and a chance to get back on track financially and reduce overall family stress. 

There is zero governmental assistance for basic hygiene items like diapers. A lack of diapers is often a hidden consequence of poverty.
