HappyBottoms is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit operating as Kansas City's diaper bank. Based in Kansas City, Missouri, it partners with social service agencies to provide diapers to families in need and to raise awareness of diaper need in the community. The organization notes that an estimated 21,000 children in the Kansas City area live in poverty and lack an adequate diaper supply, a gap driven in part by the fact that diapers are not covered by public assistance programs. Through partner agencies such as Operation Breakthrough, Catholic Charities, and Hope House, HappyBottoms distributes diapers to families in the area. Community involvement supports its work through monetary donations, diaper drives, and volunteer opportunities at its warehouse, as well as Mobile Wrap events and sponsorships of events. It operates within the broader field of individual and family services by coordinating diaper provision via a network of local partners. In 2026, Nodaway County Health Center partnered with HappyBottoms to provide diapers to WIC clients with children from birth to age four, illustrating expansion beyond its core city reach.
