HappyBottoms, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, is Kansas City`s diaper bank. Our mission is simple: to work with social service agency partners to provide diapers to low-income families while raising awareness of diaper need in our community. An estimated 21,000+ children in the Kansas City area are living in poverty and lack access to an adequate diaper supply. Since diapers are not covered by public assistance programs (such as food stamps or WIC), the cost of diapers is an out-of-pocket expense for families. The result? Parents may find themselves forced to choose between buying diapers or paying the rent /bills, and some babies are forced to spend extended periods, sometimes days, in the same soiled diaper.
