A donor mom's expereince of donating breastmilk:
"Positive, encouraging, accessible - thank you!"
Diane, breastmilk donor - Harfield Village
"What a privilege it has been to be able to donate breastmilk for the tiny little premature babies who need it so desperately.
I never knew that formula milk could have such negative side effects on premature babies, until I got involved."
Natalie (breastmilk donor) - Kraaifontein
"I gave birth to a 13 week premature baby who weighed 905 grams and dropped to 750 grams. I was producing very little milk at the time and I was able to secure some donor milk through Milk Matters!
The service I received from Milk Matters was absolutely awesome and I believe that Gabe’s health benefitted tremendously from the donor milk.
I would urge any lady who has surplus breast milk to please donate it to Milk Matters.
The benefits to premature and all babies are really too many to put in words.
Please, please donate your extra breast milk!"
Angelique - recipient premature baby's mom
"I truly recommend becoming a breast milk donor to all mothers. It is such a rewarding experience to know that you are helping give a baby the very best start in life."
Melanie (breastmilk donor) - Kenilworth
