Our 2020 end-of-the year fundraiser was such a HUGE success and we cannot thank you enough for all of your support. Our goal was to raise $10,000 between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Eve and we ended the fundraiser with donations totaling $13,015!
We are truly humbled by our community’s support, which allows us to forge forward in 2021 to provide free and reduced-fee breastfeeding consultations for families with financial and/or racial barriers to receiving breastfeeding support. The recipients’ testimonials say it all…. these consultations were lifesavers!
So, what will your donations pay for this year?
Over 150 free/reduced-fee breastfeeding consultations in 2021. This covers over 50% of the consultations we plan to provide this year, so while our fundraising efforts never end, this gets us off to an amazing start in 2021!
$2,615 has been designated for our scholarship fund to support local BIPOC women to pursue a career in lactation!
Each of our donors is incredibly important and imperative for funding our programs, which is why we like to share their names on our donor pages!
