We Exist to Help Strengthen Low-Income Families In West Central Illinois By Ensuring Access To An Adequate Supply Of Diapers, And By Raising Awareness About The Causes And Consequences Of Diaper Need In Our Communities.
Loving Bottoms Diaper Bank was created by a mom that experienced diaper need and believed no other parent should.
When she realized the closest diaper bank was over 3 hours away, she got a group of friends together to start one. We know how important it is to keep our little ones clean and dry and it is our mission to help other parents do the same.
Loving Bottoms Diaper Bank streamlines the collection and distribution of diapers to low-income families in the West Central Illinois region. With diapers and financial donations collected from the community, the Diaper Bank partners with existing service organizations to serve families who are most in need of diapers to keep their little ones clean and dry, healthy and happy.
"My niece has twins and an almost 2-year-old in diapers as well and it is close to $200 a month just for diapers for the 3 of them. Her husband is working but it is still a real struggle for them to make ends meet."

One of the families we serve was out of wipes and was using paper towels. She was so appreciative that the parent educator had brought diapers and wipes that she thanked her multiple times.

"Our clients had to use their points to get a package of diapers. Now we always have enough in every size and our clients are able to use their points to earn other needed items for their babies. Thank you!"
