Baby Basics is an all-volunteer organization that provides and distributes free diapers to working poor families living in East Palo Alto and Menlo Park, CA. Baby Basics meets an important need for working poor families in our community. Our client families maintain regular employment and do not receive welfare. However, despite their incomes, these families remain in relative poverty due to low pay levels and extremely high local living expenses. Our current clients' average annual household income is $25,300. Our program saves enrolled families approximately $600 per year in diaper expenses. Additionally, no other local program provides diapers, an expensive health necessity, on a consistent basis.
