Bottoms Up Diaper Drive

This September, Kidville Carlsbad is hosting a diaper, wipes and formula drive for SAY San Diego, a local non-profit organization who focuses on supporting and encouraging the youth of San Diego and their families. They started "Bottoms Up Diaper Drive" as an annual drive to help families with small children or infants in need during the holiday season. But the harsh reality is that there are many families in need all year long. Studies have found that parents spend over $1,500 on diapers and formula for their baby in the first year alone. 


The purpose of this drive is to make life a little easier for these families by providing essential items for their children which they may have difficulty obtaining otherwise.

How you can help:

What is Needed? Diapers, formula, and toddler/infant toiletries- for example combs, lotions, wipes, pacifiers, soap, shampoo, etc.
*Please, only new or unopened supplies.*
