Diaper Drives
- ask guests you're inviting to a birthday party or baby shower to bring a package of diapers with them
- make a package of diapers the "entrance fee" to an event
- have everyone in your club bring a package of diapers with them to a monthly meeting (or every meeting!)
Diaper Drive donations are critical to building and maintaining the supply of diapers the Diaper Bank has to distribute to partner agencies.
Please consider conducting a Diaper Drive to support the DADB!
A fun and easy way your organization, company, club, school or place of worship can help the Diaper Bank is to hold a Diaper Drive.
There's no right or wrong way to have a diaper drive. Some ideas are listed further down on this page that might get you started, but every little bit helps, so anything that's geared to collect any amount of diapers is a great idea!
No matter the how, when or where, please let us know that you're interested in running a Drive and what we can do to help. We'll list your diaper drive on this page and publicize it through Facebook and Twitter. You can provide this document to your donors if they would like a tax receipt and donation information form.
Some sample flyers and signs are listed here that can help with your publicity and we will be happy to pick up the diapers at the end of your drive (contact our Diaper Collection Coordinator,
And we would love to receive any pictures or videos you might happen to take, we'll add them to our photo galleries and share them on Facebook and our website if you allow us!

2012 Completed Diaper Drives
and Fundraisers
THANK YOU!!!
- have office potlucks for birthdays and holidays and ask coworkers to bring diapers to the events
- having an "over the hill"-type birthday party? ask friends to bring adult incontinence supplies instead of the usual gag gift
- set a goal to collect a certain number by a certain date and recruit everyone you know to help; at work, make it an inter-departmental competition with the winning group earning free lunch or an afternoon off

Our 2009 30,000 by Thanksgiving! Diaper Drive was phenomenally successful and we are SO grateful for the outpouring of support we received to help our most vulnerable neighbors. We almost doubled our original goal, ending up with over 54,000 diapers donated! Click here to visit the Drive page.
