Founded in 2008, the Bay Area Diaper Bank provides disposable diapers to families in need through our partner agencies |

In
the San Francisco Bay Area, there are over 60,000 children under the age
of five who are living below the poverty level |
|||
The
cost of a healthy change of diapers for one child is about $100 a month |
|||
Food
stamps and the WIC program do not cover the cost of diapers |
|||
In
low-income households, babies often spend the entire day or longer in
a single diaper. Inadequate diaper changing leads to numerous health risks
and problems |
