Did you know that many Clemson Extension offices across South Carolina serve as depot sites for the Mother's Milk Bank of South Carolina? 💛

Breastfeeding mothers can donate their surplus milk to help nourish NICU infants as they grow strong and healthy. It’s a wonderful way to give back and support the tiniest members of our community! 👶

For Halloween this year, the Mother's Milk Bank of South Carolina, with MUSC challenged depot sites across the state to create a pumpkin highlighting breastfeeding. Check out Anderson County Cooperative Extension Office's submission!
