why share your breast milk?

We believe in providing more options for families. Sharing breast milk has been an essential practice that has nurtured our society for generations. Yet, in today's modern world, we struggle to continue this fundamental tradition. Despite advances in technology and nutrition, modern parents still face limited options on their infant feeding journey. Through our donor program, Milkdrop, Leche is helping moms more easily share this amazing resource with families and babies who need it most.

Never waste a drop…breast milk is a precious resource that can benefit babies and families who need more options on their feeding journeys.
