Why donate milk to The Milk Bank?
When you donate milk to The Milk Bank, you become a lifesaver for infants in Missouri just like Ruby, who was born prematurely and had to spend time in the NICU.
Her mother Juli always had the intention to breastfeed, but with Ruby in the NICU and handling her own recovery from a C-section, her feeding journey didn’t quite go according to plan.
When Ruby’s care team offered donor milk from The Milk Bank as a supplementation option for Ruby, Juli immediately chose the donor milk and felt a sense of relief.
Fast forward eight months, and Juli is now a lifesaving milk donor herself! “The world that we live in today feels very tumultuous and chaotic, especially postpartum,” she says. “Having the avenue to donate milk feels like something I can do to help put more good into the world.”
