About us | Sweet Cheeks Diaper Bank is incorporated in the State of Ohio with a 501(c)(3) designation. Founded by native Cincinnatian Megan Fischer, the idea of SCDB began when Megan was pregnant with her second child in 2014. Megan learned that diapers were not covered by any social services programs, and that parents might use one diaper for days at a time, scrape out and reuse disposable diapers, or use items such as a plastic bag, when unable to purchase enough diapers for their child. As a parent, Megan could not imagine what it would feel like to not be able to provide such a basic necessity for your child. Unable to find a local diaper bank where she could donate her time, Megan began to envision creating an organization to ensure that every baby in the city she loves had enough clean diapers. With support from her family and friends, Cincinnati’s only diaper bank became a reality in 2015 and it has been rapidly growing ever since. SCDB now distributes over 2 million diapers a year. |
