Tumble Tots is in need of unused, disposable nappies and is calling for donations from the community.
The initiative, which will see the nappies donated to Bendigo's Centre for Non-Violence, is part of The Nappy Collective - a non-for-profit organisation which supports families in need.
Tumble Tots owner Emma Carmody said the business hoped to collect as many nappies as possible.
"It's a really good initiative. For these families it means there is one less thing to have to buy," she said.
"Instead they can put their money to other things, like food instead of having to purchase nappies."
Ms Carmody said Tumble Tots sourced 500 nappies last year but the business was not an official collection point and the nappies were taken to Ballarat.
"This year all the nappies will stay in Bendigo and go to helping local families," she said.
The initiative runs from May 1 until May 15.
Bendigo collection points include the YMCA building in Mundy Street and Target in King Street.
