Every Bottom
Covered.

Every Bottom Covered is a diaper bank based in Buffalo, NY, that partners with organizations across Western New York to help families access diapers, wipes, and other baby essentials.

Much like a food bank provides food, a diaper bank provides diapers and supplies to families who need them.

Diaper need affects one in three families in the United States. Because diapers cannot be purchased with SNAP (food stamp) benefits, many families struggle to afford them. Having an adequate supply of diapers helps support a child’s health and well-being while reducing stress for parents and caregivers. It can also make it possible for parents to work or attend school, since many child care providers require families to supply diapers for their children.

How does Healthy Families Allegany Cattaraugus help?

Healthy Families Allegany Cattaraugus (HFAC) partners with Ardent Solutions Inc to help distribute Every Bottoms Covered by connecting enrolled families to the program. While HFAC does not directly provide diaper bank services, your Family Support Specialist (FSS) can complete the referral and application process on your behalf.

All families enrolled in HFAC are eligible to participate in the Every Bottom Covered program. Each child under 3 years old may receive 50 diapers or 25 pull-ups, along with a package of wipes each month.

Once enrolled, your HFAC Family Support Specialist will submit the referral and bring the diaper supplies to your home during your monthly visit.
