Why Caring Closet Exists
The Reality for Many Families
One in three families struggles to afford diapers consistently
The average family spends $70 to $80 per month on diapers alone
Parents miss work when they can't afford essential supplies
Many families face the impossible choice between diapers and food
Hannah's Caring Closet removes the barriers that prevent families from accessing help, so that children in need can receive the support they need. Caring Closet is community-funded - supported by donations from neighbors helping neighbors.
