The Bottom Line Diaper Bank: Meeting Diaper Need in Champaign County
What is the Bottom Line Diaper Bank?
Diapers are essential—but expensive. Families in Champaign County spend over $80/month on diapers. When money is tight, that cost can mean babies go without.
United Way’s Bottom Line Diaper Bank provides free diapers to local families through trusted community partners. Thanks to volunteers, donors, and sponsors, we distribute over 14,000 diapers each month to meet urgent needs.
Why Diapers Matter
1 in 2 U.S. families face diaper need—lacking enough diapers to keep a child clean and healthy. Without diapers, babies are at risk for rashes, infections, and being turned away from daycare.
Our goal: Keep babies healthy, dry, and happy—while easing the financial burden on families in Champaign County.
