Why Donate?
For premature and medically fragile babies, donor human milk isn't just helpful, it's part of critical care. When a mother's own milk isn't available, pasteurized donor milk helps protect these tiny patients against serious complications like Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) and supports healthy growth during the earliest, most vulnerable days of life.
Every ounce you donate here in Valencia goes to babies in NICUs across California who need it most. If you have more milk than your baby needs, you can turn that surplus into a lifeline for another family. Screening and shipping are always free, and a real person supports you at every step.
