Diapers banks are a resource for people who cannot afford to purchase needed absorbent incontinence products due to financial difficulties. Diaper banks are only one way that a person may work to reduce the costs associated with incontinence products. Other product resource suggestions are below the diaper bank listing.
We have tried to not include organizations that only provide infant diapers in the listing below. However, services change and some may only serve infants, and others may add adult products as the need grows. Also many banks do not survive for more than a few years. We try to keep this list current, but some of the banks listed below may no longer be serving their communities.
Some diaper banks distribute productsthrough local agencies such as nonprofit organizations like United Way, food banks, senior centers, religious organizations (churches and synagogues), and school family resource centers. Individuals who cannot afford incontinence products should contact their local diaper bank and the bank will work to get products to theperson in need.
All the organizations listed below need donations of products and/or money to purchase incontinence products and associated supplies. Please contact them if you can donate to them.
Please note: The Simon Foundation for Continence does not have products to give away, and we do not sell any products. We also are unable to provide compensation, grantsor reimbursement for products.
