Greater DC Diaper Bank (GDCDB) empowers families in need throughout the Washington DC region by providing an adequate and reliable source for basic baby needs and personal hygiene products. Our organization is one of the largest diaper banks in the country, supporting tens of thousands of vulnerable families in DC, Maryland, and Virginia. Our footprint expands across four unique programs--the Diaper Distribution Program, the Baby Pantry, the Nursery Project, and the Monthly--to collect the essentials that families need to be safe, happy, and thrive.

We partner with over 75 social service agencies to distribute our diapers efficiently to the families most in need. In addition to our core diaper distribution partnerships, we mobilized 19 Diaper Needs Hubs to aid families outside our existing distribution network at the onset of the pandemic. Babies and families receive items wrapped in love and hope through our simple yet effective model: we receive donations in the form of goods, dollars, and/or time. We sort and inventory the donated items at our warehouse, and our partner organizations distribute the items to vulnerable families. Receiving families feel supported and build stronger, more sustainable relationships within the community. Together, we make a difference!
