Carol "Bunny" Jakubowski from the Women on Wheels motorcycle club drove over 176 miles to pick up 1,200 ounces of frozen breast milk from NYMB donor Caitlin S. in Naples, NY. She then delivered the donation to NYMB milk depot Baby's Sweet Beginnings in Buffalo, NY. Caitlin was having trouble scheduling with FedEx and Bunny graciously agreed to step up and help. As a result, many medically fragile infants will have improved health.

Thank you to Caitlin, Bunny, and Polly. It was truly a team effort.

The New York Milk Bank exhibited at Babies and Bumps Buffalo last month!

The Motivating Interdisciplinary Lactation Knowledge (MILK) Research Lab created two interactive community-centered toolkits for the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) setting that are designed to support Black families. The "NICU Toolkit for Black Families" provides families with resources to better guide and support their NICU experiences. It provides hospitals and birthing centers with recommendations to promote health equity and justice to better serve Black communities.

The New York Milk Bank provides milk to premature infants in the hospital when their mother’s own milk is insufficient or unavailable. We support families and their babies throughout the life cycle by educating and supporting families on the benefits of human milk. If you or someone you know is currently in need of pasteurized breast milk, click here.
