💧💛August is National Breastfeeding Month 💧💛 When breastfeeding isn’t possible, pasteurized donor human milk (PDHM) provides a lifeline—especially for fragile and medically vulnerable babies. At HMBANA, we celebrate not only the act of breastfeeding, but the system of care that ensures babies still receive safe, evidence-based nutrition when direct breastfeeding isn’t an option. That system depends on generous milk donors—because every ounce, every donation, every drop truly counts. This month, we honor breastfeeding in all its forms—and invite lactating parents to consider becoming a donor. Your extra milk could help save a life.

World Breastfeeding Week is August 1-7 and the start of Breastfeeding Awareness Month. We'll be sharing about ways to prioritize breastfeeding and lactation throughout the month and beyond with ways to support new families.

❓Why Do NICUs Use Donor Milk ❓
Because it saves lives—and the science backs it.
When a mother’s own milk is unavailable to meet their baby’s needs, pasteurized donor human milk
(PDHM) is the gold standard to prevent necrotizing enterocolitis. It supports fragile infants by boosting immunity, aiding digestion, and improving survival outcomes—especially for babies born premature or with
medical complexities. Clinical evidence drives it. Collaboration makes it possible.
