Infants' Milk Bank

An Infants' Milk Bank is a specialized facility that collects, screens, processes, and dispenses donated breast milk to babies in need, such as premature or ill infants whose mothers cannot produce enough milk. Donors voluntarily provide breast milk, which is carefully tested for safety, frozen, and then shared with hospitals or families. This service ensures vulnerable infants receive the nutritional and immune benefits of breast milk, promoting healthier growth and development. Milk banks play a critical role in supporting neonatal care and ensuring safe, quality breast milk is accessible to those who need it most.
