THE FALL 2022 DIAPER DRIVE WAS A HUGE SUCCESS!
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your generous participation in the 2022 Fall Diaper Drive! We are deeply grateful for your support, and your diapers are already providing health and hope to so many children and their families.
Unfortunately, while our fall diaper drive usually carries us through the winter months, the need for baby diapers this year has exploded. Even with our successful fall campaign, our shelves are critically low due to an unexpected, dramatic increase in need. As families struggle to keep up with expenses at this time of year and the demand for emergency shelter within Catholic Charities’ ministries increases, we are asking for your continued support.
If you didn’t have a chance to participate in our fall diaper drive, it’s not too late to help. We would be grateful for your additional assistance to restock our shelves and get Miles, our amazing diaper truck, back on the road!
Marisol Family’s director Kalynn Webster would be happy to give you a tour and answer your questions about our program at kwebster@ccdenver.org. Please follow us on social media at @marisolfamily_co and @ccdenvermarisolfamily to track where Miles is heading next!
About The Bottom Line
Diaper Bank
The Bottom Line Diaper Bank helps to support the one in three Colorado families in need of diapers by providing access for infants, toddlers and incontinent adults. We support all ministries within Catholic Charities with all their diaper needs. This includes Marisol Family, Early Childhood Education, Family & Kinship Services, Senior Services, Marisol Services and Samaritan House.
Our Diaper Bank raises awareness about diaper need and how it affects families across Northern Colorado. To combat challenges associated with diaper expenses, we work to ensure that the needs of those who need help most in our community are met.
Thank you for your donation!

Did you Know?
- More than 67,000 children in Colorado each year need diapers their families can't afford.
- Diapers cannot be purchased with food stamp benefits or through the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program.
- Early childhood facilities require a one-week supply of diapers for children to attend and most don't accept cloth diapers - making disposable diapers essential.
- Working parents say they miss one to four days of work a month due to a shortage of diapers.
- Without access to disposable diapers, parents report drying urine-soaked diapers and using plastic bags when funds run low, leading to painful diaper rash and health complications.
