Founded in 2009 by Houston's own Hope Ewing, The Diaper Foundation (TDF) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that helps underprivileged families acquire adequate diapering supplies for their children. In addition to diaper assistance, the organization focuses on raising awareness on poverty issues, and providing families with hope for the future. We at The Diaper Foundation want to empower women and their families to live healthily, and help them build a firm foundation of character principles that will support them throughout their lives.

According to the Houston, Texas Poverty Rate Data Report , over 33% of the population’s children live below the poverty level
In low income households, babies often spend an entire day or longer in a single diaper because the family cannot afford to buy new ones, putting them at risk for health issues and abuse
Federally funded programs including SNAP Food Stamps and The Woman, Infants, and Children (WIC), do not cover the cost of diapers for low income parents
A sufficient supply of diapers can cost over $100 per month per child
