Hope Supply Co. provides diapers for Buckner families and children in North Texas

More mothers and children in North Texas will receive critical supplies and support due to a collaboration between Hope Supply Co. and Buckner International. 

Hope Supply Co. is the largest children’s diaper and critical needs bank in Texas. Two years ago, the organization hit their milestone of distributing 25 million diapers.

They serve a network of 70-plus partner agencies including homeless shelters, domestic violence shelters, pantries, hospitals, and clinics. The supplies they distribute go to families and children that need these resources most.

Hope Supply Co. has generously committed to providing Buckner Children and Family Services with diapers, formula, wipes, hygiene items for babies, and PediaSure for older children. These supplies will benefit the families who are enrolled in Buckner programs such as maternity services, Buckner Family Hope Centers and Buckner Family Pathways in the Dallas area.

Families in Texas on average pay over $100 monthly per child on diapers. Low-income families often report that diaper need is their greatest financial burden.

“In Dallas County alone, 87,000 babies and toddlers don’t have adequate access to enough diapers to keep them clean, dry and healthy,” states Hope Supply Co. Filling the gap in Dallas County would require at least 52,225,800 diapers annually.

For many families, the gift of these supplies will allow them to ensure that other needs are being met for their households.

Buckner maternity services provide counseling and support to pregnant women, postpartum moms, and anyone else in the family unit who needs encouragement. Buckner’s licensed, bilingual counselors can walk with women at any stage in their motherhood journey.
