We always recommend calling an agency to make sure that they have the sizes and styles available that you need.

What do I need to bring with me to receive diapers?

While we always recommend calling a partner agency to ask what documents you need prior to going to receive assistance, there are a few documents that are relatively common: You will need to bring a form of photo ID, you may be asked to provide your child’s birth certificate, you may be asked to provide a proof of need (i.e.: WIC card, EBT card, AHCCCS Card, Discount SUNTRAN Go Card

Don’t federally or state funded programs cover diapers for families and seniors?

Unfortunately, safety net programs do not cover diapers – not Food Stamps, not Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), and not Medicare (except hospice). At $107 a month or more, diapers become a luxury item for families and seniors.

I just potty trained my child and have half a bag of diapers left. Can I donate them?

Yes! We can safely handle open packages. We have stringent sanitation protocols and all diapers are re-bundled to ensure safe distribution.
