About The Manchester Diaper Pantry

The Manchester Diaper Pantry is a nonprofit organization based in Manchester, New Hampshire, dedicated to meeting the diaper needs of families in our local community. Our mission is to provide free diapers and diapering essentials to families—regardless of income level, race, gender, ethnicity, or housing status—because we believe every child deserves access to clean, dry diapers.

Originally founded by Gabi Teed and her husband in 2019, the pantry was adopted and expanded into a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization by Tia Middleton in 2024 to better serve the growing needs of families across Greater Manchester and surrounding areas.

Why We Exist

Diaper need is a silent crisis affecting thousands of families in New Hampshire. Public assistance programs like SNAP and WIC do not cover diapers, leaving many parents to struggle with this basic necessity. Without access to clean diapers, children face increased health risks, and parents often experience stress, isolation, and barriers to employment or childcare.

At The Manchester Diaper Pantry, we work to change that. We’re committed to:

  • Providing free diapers to families through monthly distributions and emergency relief.

  • Reducing diaper insecurity by working with local agencies, healthcare providers, and community partners.

  • Raising awareness about the impact of diaper need on family health and well-being.

What We Do

Through generous donations and the support of volunteers, we collect, store, and distribute thousands of diapers each month to families in need. We offer a safe, inclusive environment where families can get the help they need—without judgment or stigma.

We focus on:

  • Serving all families, including those facing homelessness or temporary hardship

  • Distributing the most-needed diaper sizes (sizes 4–7)

  • Partnering with local organizations to expand our reach and impact

Join Us

Whether you donate diapers, contribute financially, or volunteer your time, your support helps us make a real difference. Together, we can create a stronger, healthier community where no child has to go without clean diapers.
