Support Beantown Diaper Bank

 

You can help keep local babies clean, healthy, and dry! WEST will be collecting diaper donations at all of our in-person May events (5/2, 5/8, 5/23).

 

▪ You can purchase a box or bag of disposable diapers to donate - no quantity is too big or small - every diaper matters! ▪ You may purchase diapers via Beantown Baby Diaper Bank’s Amazon Wishlist.
▪ You can bring in FRESH disposable diapers that your children have outgrown. Open packages or loose unused FRESH diapers are accepted! (Please make sure diapers are not dried out - they DO expire!)
▪ Donate online at beantownbabydiaperbank.org.

 

Note: Larger disposable diapers (sizes 4, 5, 6, and 7) are of greatest need, though diapers of all sizes are accepted. Swim diapers are accepted.
