$10,000 Goal
We help breastfeeding families with free lactation support and breastfeeding education.
Thanks to more than 15,000 generous breastmilk donors, more than 9 million ounces of donated breastmilk have been dispensed to the babies who needed it most.
Mothers' Milk Bank of North Texas strives to improve the health and survival of infants through breastfeeding advocacy and the safe, equitable provision of pasteurized donor human milk.
Contributions to our charitable care program, the Milk Money Fund, help us ensure that outpatient babies are never denied life-saving milk. Most of these families don't have insurance, have reached their policy's lifetime maximum or have other situations preventing insurance reimbursement.
Examples of outpatient babies we have served include infants with HIV complications, feeding tubes, heart defects, severe bowel malformations and those awaiting organ transplants.
Babies are prioritized based on their medical condition, not their family's ability to pay milk processing fees.
At Mothers’ Milk Bank of North Texas, we are dedicated to improving equitable access to human milk, fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace for our employees and cultivating relationships with community partners that broaden our impact and deepen our connection to the communities we serve.
We actively identify systemic barriers and disparities to ensure equitable access to our services for families in need. We advocate to make donor milk accessible to all outpatient families and collaborate with healthcare providers to reach underserved populations.
We strive to provide a welcoming and supportive environment where all individuals feel valued and respected regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religion, socioeconomic status or ability. We celebrate and embrace diversity in our communities and work to ensure representation and inclusion in our programs.
