Get Diapers

Giving families diapers is easy to get behind

HappyBottoms helps Kansas City area families get diapers for their babies. If your child is less than four years old and your family is in financial need, you may qualify for free diapers or training pants every month.

HappyBottoms is available to eligible residents of Cass County (MO), Clay County (MO), Jackson County (MO), Johnson County (KS), Platte County (MO), and Wyandotte County (KS).

If your family needs diapers or food due to the economic effects of COVID-19, we can help! Your child may be eligible for diapers if they are under the age of 4, you live in a qualifying county, and your family is in financial need and/or you have lost your job or experienced other financial effects from the COVID-19 pandemic.
