Wrapped in Love Diaper Bank

Overview

Wrapped in Love Diaper Bank is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing essential hygiene supplies to underserved communities in Yavapai County, Arizona. Established on February 14, 2023, the organization aims to alleviate the financial burden of acquiring diapers, feminine hygiene products, and incontinence supplies for low-income families and vulnerable individuals.

Mission

The mission of Wrapped in Love Diaper Bank is to reduce the cost of these critical supplies, thereby enhancing the health and well-being of community members. The organization collaborates with family resource centers, community agencies, and family programs to ensure that these essential items reach those who need them most.

Services and Impact

Wrapped in Love Diaper Bank distributes more than 5,000 diapers each month and is expanding its services to include incontinence supplies for elderly individuals and menstrual products for school students. The need is significant, with over 1,900 children living in poverty in Yavapai County and more than 7,600 elderly individuals in similar circumstances.

Key Initiatives

• Diaper Distribution: The organization focuses on providing diapers, which is critical for both health and economic reasons. Diapers enable parents to use childcare services, work, and attend school without interruption.
• Potty Training Kits: Wrapped in Love offers potty training kits to support families transitioning their children to preschool and kindergarten, facilitating smooth educational transitions.
• Menstrual Products: The organization works with local schools to ensure that period products are accessible in nurse's offices, addressing the limited availability of these essential items for economically disadvantaged students.
• Incontinence Supplies: By providing incontinence supplies, Wrapped in Love helps elderly individuals and others affected by incontinence due to medical conditions or age.

Partnerships and Growth

Wrapped in Love Diaper Bank collaborates with twenty community partners to expand its reach and impact. The organization experienced a significant increase in services, with a 146% rise in diapers distributed and children served in the first nine months of 2024 compared to the prior year[2]. This growth reflects the increasing demand for its services and the critical role it plays in supporting vulnerable populations.
