Founder Kim Amato established Baby’s Bounty™ in July of 2008 after witnessing the impact of homelessness on families with young children. Kim began researching how often newborns were released from the hospital without the proper supplies for their health, safety, and well-being. Hospital staff and Clark County caseworkers confirmed that, in fact, many families were being discharged without the resources to provide basic necessities such as clothing, diapers, a car seat, and a crib. When Kim started collecting items to create “Baby Bundles” from her living room, Baby’s Bounty™ was born! In operation for over 12 years, Baby’s Bounty has recently added recurring diaper banks to its programming; one in Las Vegas, one in Henderson and recently launched a third in North Las Vegas.
