WHO WE ARE
The Nappy Collective is Australia’s only nonprofit dedicated solely to collecting and distributing nappies to families in crisis, operating nationwide, all year round. We accept new, leftover, or outgrown nappies, and deliver them through our trusted network of charity partners.
We are dedicated to reducing the impact of nappy stress in Australia - the devastating reality faced by parents who don’t have enough nappies to change their children as often as they need to.
Our research shows around 280,000 children across 150,000 families experience nappy stress. For a sole parent living on the poverty line, nappies alone may take up as much as 9% of their weekly disposable income. Babies left in wet or soiled nappies face rashes, infections and serious discomfort, while parents endure impossible choices between food, medicine or clean nappies.
By supporting The Nappy Collective, you are protecting babies’ health, restoring dignity to families and giving hope to those in crisis.
Together, we can end nappy stress in Australia and ensure every child has a clean start in life.

“We were constantly needing nappies. We spent a lot of the time struggling with a decision no family should be making: do we feed ourselves or keep our family hygienic?””
