Why I'm running for Mothers' Milk Bank Northeast
I'm so excited to be running in the Falmouth Race to raise money for Mother's Milk Bank Northeast. I've donated breast milk and now this is the next step! Their work allows medically fragile babies in the NICU to receive screened donor milk to help improve their health and outcomes. Please help me raise money to help them continue such wonderful work!
Description
Funds raised for Mothers' Milk Bank Northeast help to provide 1.5 million feedings annually for fragile infants.
"When my son was born, I felt like a failure. He was born too early; I failed at keeping him safely inside of me. My milk wasn't in yet and I couldn't even feed my baby. Then I was offered donor milk, and it felt like a group of other moms suddenly stood up beside me saying, 'We got you, you don't have to do this alone.' I can't begin to tell you what a difference that made for me and my little guy." -- Ashley and her son Ben - Milk recipient family
