First and foremost, we'd like to congratulate all of you. It's tough being a parent during this pandemic. We are doing our best to continue to support new families.

We're trying to broaden our ways to support.

Breastfeeding and Quarentine-ing
Like most of you, I've been glued to the news over the past six weeks as COVID-19 has continued its global spread. What went from witnessing the virus's impact on countries across the world very quickly morphed into worrying about my own community in the blink of an eye. As a mother of three young children, my initial concern was protecting my family; we have been following social distancing measures, washing hands to the point of rawness, and monitoring where the little ones stick their fingers all day long.

Thanks again for choosing the BRC for your breastfeeding needs and Happy Mother's Day! If you're able, donations are needed to help us keep this program going. We've applied for all the possible grants that are available as well as the Payroll Protection Program. We still need your help. If you can, please add the BRC to your giving list. How about in honor of your own mother?

Sincerely,

Colette Acker
