We believe that clean diapers are basic needs for every infant and toddler. To reduce the financial burden that parents and caregivers experience, Babies Need Bottoms nonprofit diaper bank provides supplemental and emergency diapers to families in Buncombe, Haywood, Henderson, Madison, and Transylvania Counties.

DIAPER NEED FACTS

  • Diapers & diaper supplies are not covered by government assistance
  • Diapers cost an average of $70-$80 per month, per child
  • Infants use up to 12 diapers/day and toddlers up to 8 diapers/day
  • 1 in 3 American families reports experiencing diaper need
  • Without transportation, buying diapers at a convenience store rather than a large “big box” store can significantly increase the monthly cost of diapers.
