Diaper Program
Providing Diapers to Families in Windsor
Families are Struggling in Windsor
There has been an 80% increase in Windsor families who can’t afford diapers. This forces them to make impossible choices between essential needs like food, rent or their child’s hygiene. Babies left in diapers are at risk of rashes, infection and discomfort.

Diapers are a crucial resource for families with babies and young children. Distributing diapers to low-resourced families helps reduce economic burden, reduces stress, and promotes infant and child well-being. The immediate needs of low-resourced families are being met through this program, while connecting these same families with other beneficial programs offered through the participating organizations.
We appreciate the desire to donate reusable cloth diapers. However, some people do not have reliable laundry services or capacity to launder reusable diapers. We are encouraging donations of disposable diapers.
Youth diapers are for disabled and special needs children. Baby diapers are too small and may leak. Adult diapers are too big. Finding diapers that are the right size is important for positive self-esteem and good hygiene.
