PDX Diaper Bank

Mission

In collaboration with partner agencies, PDX Diaper Bank provides diapers and diapering supplies to low-income families with young children, older adults, and individuals with disabilities living in Portland and the surrounding areas.

Bottom Line for Portland

Since 2012, PDX Diaper Bank has provided over 8 million diapers, cloth and disposable, to children and families in need. Equitable access to diapering essentials supports the health and wellness of our community, as well as eases financial strain for families during the pursuit of personal, educational, and professional success. PDX Diaper Bank maximizes its impact by distributing diapering essentials to a diverse network of local nonprofit and government partner agencies that provide critical services to individuals and families experiencing poverty (55 agencies supported in 2024).

Quote

“Now that I don’t have the stress of finding money for diapers, I am able to travel to see my other child. She lives 2 hours away with her mother and I try to travel there as much as possible. For the past 3 months I now have been able to see her several times, just from the money saved through the diaper program.”  - Local father
