Austin Diaper Bank

Anyone who's ever bought baby formula knows just how expensive it can be - that's why we won't let any go to waste. 😎

Did you have to try lots of different brands for your baby? Were you given some that won't work for your little one? Are you a pediatric center that can't use all those samples before they expire?

Austin Diaper Bank accepts donations of UNOPENED and UNEXPIRED baby formula powder or liquid, any size. You can drop it off at any of our donation sites throughout the city, including the OG (our warehouse on Denton). 🌟

Visit www.austindiapers.org/donate-diapers or click the link in our bio to find your nearest drop-off location. 📥

Thanks for being part of the FORMULA that keeps our community happy, healthy, and thriving. 💗 See what we did there? You should share this post if you did. 😉

This , we're reminding ATX that we make the most of what we have!

ADB wraps diapers in packs of 25 (ask us why in the comments), and we also use any scraps large enough to wrap period products! Two basic needs items, one bag - that's the saying, right? 😁

So, rest assured that when you donate diapers or period products, we're doing our best to keep sustainability top of mind as we serve our neighbors. 🥰

Learn more about donating products online at www.austindiapers.org or click the link in our bio!

P.S. - Go look at our last post for guidance on how to donate.

A lot is going on in these photos, so let us explain.

Austin Diaper Bank proudly accepts donations of loose, clean diapers - if you would put them on your baby, we'd happily take them off your hands. One of the ways to donate? In our outdoor bins.

But we're missing a crucial step here.

Today, our team found loose and open diapers in our outdoor bin, soaked through with rainwater and filled with debris. They had to make the tough decision of throwing them away.

Loose or open packages of diapers MUST be tied in a plastic bag, placed in a trash bag, or sealed in some way before donating to prevent them from getting wet and dirty. This week's forecast is a recipe for disaster with any loose diapers dropped into our outdoor bins.

Please help us ensure that every diaper actually reaches a family in our community by taking steps to keep them safe and dry. If you ever have any questions or concerns about donating diapers to our bins, reach out to us by phone, email, or DM. We'll be checking the bin regularly to ensure we don't miss any of your kind donations.

Thank you for caring about our littler community members. 💗

It's back to the basics with the basic needs items at ADB this Wednesday! 😉

We've been super busy this season, but today, we prioritized the basics of giving back - volunteering. 💗 Our volunteers are a BIG deal. They help us inspect, count, and package diapers for our 39 partner agencies in Central Texas. Simply put, we can't do our work without them.

Check out these fun photos of today's group, who spent time wrapping Size 5 Diapers and Pull-Ups!

Listen, we're not tooting our own horn .... we just know the value of peace of mind. ✨

Austin Diaper Bank provides nearly 2 MILLION diapers each year to families in Central Texas. These essential items change lives, and we know it. 🫶

You can be a part of that change! Every dollar donated to Austin Diaper Bank helps ensure that our neighbors never have to choose between paying rent and buying diapers. Just $35 provides enough diapers for a child for two weeks. 🧷

You can donate online at www.austindiapers.org or click the link in our bio.

POV: YOU make a difference when you donate! 😁

We’re wrapping up , but not the impact! 💛

The reality is that 2 in 5 people struggle to afford period products.

And you know what's crazy? Most Americans (77% y'all) believe they should be as easy to access as toilet paper.

There's obviously a gap in the system, and Bright Spot is working to close it. Period.

Help us finish the week strong by supporting our Bright Spot program. Donate dollars or tampons through our Amazon Wishlist at austindiapers.org/bright-spot or hit the link in our bio! ✨

It's time for a change this . 🌟

No one should ever have to miss work, school, or ... life because they didn't have access to period products. Sadly, 1 in 3 people with periods do.

Enter the Bright Spot. 😉

Austin Diaper Bank and our period product program, Bright Spot, continue to work diligently for dignity. In 2023, our team collaborated with State Representative Donna Howard to successfully remove the sales tax on diapers and period products. This legislation was a huge milestone that's helped millions of Texans.

But data still indicates that about 40% of people are struggling to afford their period. You can help change that!

How? 🧐

- Donate period products (most urgent need: tampons) IRL or through our Amazon Wishlist!
- Host a drive to collect period products for Bright Spot
- Volunteer next weekend! We're prepping period products for our partners (say that 5 times fast! 😂)

You can find all of the ways to get involved at www.austindiapers.org/bright-spot and www.austindiapers.org/volunteer. And of course, links are in bios.

Thanks for being a part of the change!

😍😍😍

Thank you so much to everyone who donated to our diaper drive! We collected over 2,000 diapers, hundreds of wipes, and even some feminine products — all thanks to your generosity. We’ll be dropping everything off at the Austin Diaper Bank this week, and we’re so grateful for your support in helping local families.

It's ! But what does that even mean? ❓

Period poverty is the inability to afford or access enough period products, and it's a big deal considering 2 in 5 people in the U.S. go through this each month.

We're not okay with that. So, we're changing the status quo - one product at a time. 🌟

Our Bright Spot program gave out nearly 400,000 products to our partner agencies last year. This year, we've already given out over 150K.

What's even better? YOU have a chance to be part of this change.

This , we've lined up THREE volunteer opportunities on a WEEKEND specifically dedicated to wrapping period products. Join us for a two-hour shift (you have to be 13+) and make a difference! 💗

Click the link in our bio and select "Volunteer," or visit www.austindiapers.org/volunteer to be part of the period action.
