Sweet Cheeks Diaper Bank

People say diaper need will disappear when pigs fly...

We say welcome to Cincinnati!

Where our pigs fly, we put chili on our spaghetti, 

and diaper need is being eliminated, one baby at a time. 

Diaper need is the lack of a sufficient supply of diapers to keep a baby clean, dry and healthy. 

It’s a reality in our city. There are over 16,000 diaper-wearing children in the Greater Cincinnati area experiencing diaper need each month.

Diaper need leads to serious health conditions. 

As you can imagine, diaper need has many detrimental outcomes for children and families including a lack of physical, mental, emotional, and educational well-being.  Most immediately, an inadequate supply of diapers forces many parents to leave their children in a soiled diaper longer than is appropriate–sometimes for days at a time.

Diaper need leads to increased economic hardship. 

Preschools and daycares require parents to bring a supply of diaper for their children. When parents run out of diapers, kids can't go to daycare; when kids can't go to daycare, parents can't get to work. Missing work - or worse - losing your job due to lack of childcare significantly impacts a family's ability to pay bills, purchase basic needs, and on a larger scale, break the difficult cycle of poverty.

We distribute over 2 million diapers each year! 

Sweet Cheeks works to address diaper need in the most efficient and effective manner, following a "diaper bank" model. Supplying diapers to families through our 50+ local partner social service agencies limits unnecessary duplication of services, reduces administrative expenses, and works collaboratively to solve a basic human need at the community level for infants, young children, and the disabled.

We are proud of the impact we’ve had on the Greater Cincinnati.

Founded in 2015, we are thrilled to be just months away from distributing our 10,000,000th diaper! Because of your support, more babies are happy, healthy, and safe because they have clean diapers. More caregivers have been relieved of the stress, worry, and hardships relating to diaper need.
