Our Needs Program was created to make our products more accessible to folks with a limited budget.


Based on an honor system of need and self-identification, folks can purchase selected items at a considerable discount.

The Needs program exists to provide folks with high quality solutions that they truly need from Lil Helper but cannot otherwise afford.

Kind Capitalism is one of Lil Helper’s core principles, where we operate as a for-profit business but where profit is not our only motive to show up for work. At our core, we want to provide solutions to people based on their needs.

We hope to make it easier for folks to switch to reusable products when we can by helping with the upfront costs in this way.

Needs program acts as a subsidy program and will replace our Baby Do Better Program so that we can offer all our needs based products at a subsidized rate for folks who need them.

The Needs Program is stocked with qualifying items that we can reasonably offer either by ordering in bulk or by stocking prints that we have a surplus of. We are a for-profit business but profit is not our sole motivation.


When folks support our company by buying full priced items, it allows us to offer some products at a discounted rate for those who truly need the help.

We know the Lil Helper family is incredibly generous and supportive. At this time, we have not found a way to allow other folks to support our work directly in the Need’s Program. We are going to continue investigating this option!
Currently, we are in the beginning trial stage of our Needs Program, and only offering our HyPs menstrual pads. We hope to be able to expand this program in the future.
