    parents deserve more options

    parents deserve more options

    When it comes to preserving, donating or having access to breast milk, we are giving more parents more options. We are breaking down the barriers that exist today in accessing breast milk, providing you and your family with better choices that you deserve. We are empowering our donors to make choices about their ability to share and provide others with breast milk in a  way that works best for them. 

    We’ve combined the technology that powers our freeze-drying service, hospital-grade processing and the generosity of our donor network to bring you the first of its kind, shelf-stable breast milk.  Regardless of your own breastfeeding or infant feeding journey, parents now have access to shelf-stable breast milk that gives them flexibility, convenience and optimal nutrition.
