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] It has support from show-business personalities: a 2018 gala dinner raised $4million.[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 is one of the four charities to which the Duke and Duchess of Sussex suggested people might donate instead of sending gifts for their newborn son Archie in 2019.[4][5]
