Dollars for Diapers


Let’s Keep Lexington's Babies Happy and Healthy!

Every day, families in our community face the difficult decision of choosing between essentials like food, rent, and diapers. The Nest in Lexington, Kentucky, is here to provide critical support—but we can’t do it alone.

Help us raise $8,000 to fully fund the diaper need at The Nest for all of 2025!

Prefer to buy diapers and have them delivered? 


Why Diapers Matter

  • 1 in 3 families in the U.S. struggles to afford enough diapers to keep their babies clean and dry.

  • Babies without clean diapers are more likely to experience rashes, infections, and other health issues.

  • Government assistance programs like SNAP and WIC don’t cover diapers, leaving many families without options.

 

How Your Support Helps

Every dollar you donate goes directly to purchasing diapers for families in need right here in Lexington. By participating in the Dollars for Diapers Diaper Drive, you’re providing more than just diapers—you’re giving peace of mind, health, and dignity to local families.

 

Get Involved

  • Donate Funds: A $50 donation diapers a Lexington baby for a month!

  • Host a Drive: Gather your friends, coworkers, or community groups to collect diapers or raise funds.

  • Spread the Word: Share our message on social media and encourage others to join the cause. Use the hashtag #DiapersForLex to show your support!
