Baby2Baby is an American 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization which provides diapers, clothes and other necessities for children in poverty in the Los Angeles area and in disaster areas across the country.[1] In the ten years to 2021, Baby2Baby donated over 200 million items to children in need, including those in foster care, disaster victims, homeless and more.[2]
Baby2Baby leads the Baby2Baby National Network, which works with local organizations to "distribute basic essentials to children living in poverty in over 40 cities across the United States."[3]
It has garnered support from show business personalities, with a 2018 gala dinner raising $4 million.[4] It is one of four charities that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex suggested people might donate to instead of sending gifts for their newborn son Archie in 2019.[5][6]
