South Carolina Breastfeeding Coalition recognizes that practicing lactation in SC is difficult due to limited training opportunities and reimbursement issues. Offering low-cost lactation education is part of our mission to promote, protect, and support the art and science of human milk feeding as the superior form of nutrition and nurture for infants and young children. To this end, we are offering $100.00 scholarships for the 2026 conference to allow people involved in or aiming to improve lactation in SC to attend if their financial circumstances prevent paying full-price.

Please see our Webpages at SCBreastfeeds.org/conference-2026. The application can be found at: https://www.scbreastfeeds.org/conference-scholarship.

Warmly,
South Carolina Breastfeeding Coalition Steering Committee

The holidays are a time for reflection, gratitude, and giving. At BirthMatters, that means coming together to support the moms and families we serve. This year, many of our families are facing a particularly difficult season—some at risk of losing essential benefits.

BirthMatters is working to provide comfort, community, and care to families who need it most. One highlight of the season is our annual BirthMatters Christmas Shop, a no cost event where our clients can “shop” for gifts and essentials made possible entirely by donor contributions.

You can make a meaningful impact in two ways: Shop our Amazon Wishlist to purchase items directly for our families OR Make a Donation to help us fill in the gaps and spread holiday cheer

Our goal is to raise $5,000 to meet these critical needs. Every dollar brings us closer to ensuring that no family feels forgotten this holiday season. Thank you for helping BirthMatters make this season brighter for every mom and child we serve.

Special thank you to Imagination Station for sponsoring our Christmas event!
