The Nappy Collective is the only Australian nonprofit that focuses soley on collecting nappies and distributing them to families in crisis.

WHY NAPPIES?

We collect donations of new and leftover nappies - ones that little ones have grown out of or no longer need - and pass them onto our Community Partners that support families.

Through our research, we have learned that 1 in 10 families, or 280,000 children, don’t have enough nappies - a situation we have named “nappy stress”. Nappy stress can impact families facing financial hardship, experiencing or at risk of homelessness, escaping domestic violence, seeking asylum or those impacted by natural disasters.

By donating nappies to The Nappy Collective, you are helping to keep disadvantaged little ones clean, happy and healthy.

STORIES FROM THE HEART

I only have four (nappies) left until tomorrow when I get paid. I’m sorry I’m crying, I’m so relieved.

I can’t put into words what it meant to get essentials like nappies. It was one thing that could give me a breather financially. It gave me hope.”
— Jess, nappy recipient and mother of a little girl, VIC
 
The Nappy Collective’s provision of nappies has become integral to the support we are able to provide women with babies escaping domestic violence. It is one need that can be addressed efficiently and with dignity.
