Help keep babies healthy and dry by supporting LEAP’s Diaper Bank!

According to the National Diaper Bank Network, 1 in 2 U.S. families struggles to provide enough diapers to keep a baby or toddler clean, dry, and healthy. That’s true for families right here in Santa Barbara County. LEAP runs the county’s only registered diaper bank and distributed more than 6000 each month to families in need. That’s a lot of diapers and we need your support!
