Baby Pantry
1 in 3 U.S. families experience diaper need. We want to change that. – National Diaper Bank Network
As one of Monmouth County’s only diaper pantries, we are dedicated to providing diapers and other essential baby supplies to families in need. Did you know that the Jersey Shore Dream Center distributes around 10,000 diapers a month? There are so many people facing the difficult choice between diapers and other necessities. Our baby pantry helps fill that need and your donations make it possible.
The Jersey Shore Dream Center’s Baby Pantry is one of the largest growing outreaches here at the Dream Center. The need for diapers is overwhelming in our community.
Most childcare centers, even free and subsidized facilities require parents to provide a day’s supply of disposable diapers. Many parents cannot go to work or school if they can’t leave their babies in childcare.
5.3 million children in the U.S. aged three or younger live in poor or low-income families. The Jersey Shore Dream Center believes in finding a need and filling it. With our new partnerships in the community, our need for diapers has grown.
Baby Pantry
We always need diapers, wipes, formula, and baby food. Supply drives are a great, contactless way to volunteer and make a big impact in the community.
We can also take individual donations of the above items at our offices, as well as donations of gently used baby clothing, toys, and baby gear. Please email or call our baby pantry prior to bringing donations for more information.
You also can donate your time! This program is run primarily by volunteers - every person makes a difference in the number of families we can serve! If you’d like to get involved, contact us here.
Donate supplies
Our organization is serving 180 families and gives out approximately 12,000 diapers a month! We are always in need of diapers, wipes, and formula.
