donor milk banks

Donor milk banks collect, screen, and pasteurize breast milk donated by nursing mothers to provide safe, pasteurized milk to infants, especially premature or vulnerable babies who cannot receive their mother’s milk. These banks ensure the milk is free from harmful bacteria and diseases, following strict health protocols. Donor milk supports infant health by supplying essential nutrients and immune factors, helping reduce risks of infections and feeding difficulties. These programs play a vital role in neonatal intensive care units and community health, bridging gaps when maternal milk is unavailable or insufficient.
