Community-based breastmilk sharing works because parents, caretakers, professionals, and people just like YOU are joining together to help ensure that babies have access to commerce-free and safe donor breastmilk. Babies need breastmilk to maintain optimum health. Families and professionals know this! Every day, donors from around the world selflessly offer thousands of ounces of breastmilk through eats on feets directly to the families of babies in need, making a huge difference in their lives.

Our 29 members help mothers donate their extra breast milk for use by fragile infants as medicine. Our efforts ensure that the process is evidence-based and clinically sound. Together, we advocate for donor milk as a universal standard of care, regardless of the ability to pay.
