Clean Bums
for Little Ones
Keep babies clean, healthy and comfortable. Support Australia's only nappy charity to help families in crisis access nappies when they need them most.
This is our biggest campaign of the year.
Our 2026 goal: Raise $100,000 and collect 500,000 nappies for Australian families.
Help us reach $100,000 by 31 May.
Nappy donations are essential. Financial donations keep them moving and help fill the gaps when demand spikes.
Keeps nappies moving
Storage, sorting, transport.
Fills the gaps
Sizes, demand spikes, top-ups where needed.
Reaches families fast
Remote areas, disasters, urgent supply.
Nappies are not optional.
Every parent knows the stress of a nappy rash starting, or the awful feeling of knowing their babies' nappies should be changed more often. For families in crisis, that stress escalates fast.
Babies' health
Without enough nappies, babies can be left uncomfortable and at higher risk of rashes and infections.
Life stalls
No nappies for babies means missed appointments, childcare barriers, and parents struggling to work or access support.
Parent wellbeing
Nappy stress fuels worry, isolation and pressure. No parent should carry that alone.
We are the system that keeps nappies moving.
The Nappy Collective runs the national pipeline behind nappy relief, distributing nappies through trusted frontline services so families in crisis can access nappies for free.
Local donations support local families.
Nappies donated at collection points are collected by volunteers, sorted and repackaged, then delivered through local frontline services that families already rely on. Your local donation helps families in your area.
How it works
Donate nappies locally through collection points.
Volunteers collect, sort and repackage donations.
We distribute nappies to frontline services.
Families receive nappies free, through services they already trust.
Why financial donations matter.
Nappy donations are essential. But we can only meet demand at scale when the system behind those donations is funded. Cash keeps nappies moving through storage, sorting and transport, fills size gaps, supports remote delivery, and helps us respond quickly when demand spikes.
Funding helps us reduce the hidden cost of nappy stress. The guilt, worry and isolation parents feel when they can't change nappies as often as their baby needs.
