Make Milk Donation as Common as Giving Blood

By signing the Start Strong Pledge, you’re helping shift how families understand and talk about human milk donation. For many parents, donor milk only becomes visible in a moment of crisis. Start Strong exists to change that, so awareness comes earlier, with clarity, confidence, and support.

This pledge is a simple but powerful way to stand with families, healthcare providers, and communities working to protect medically fragile babies.

The Pledge

  • I believe that human milk donation should be visible, understood, and supported in our communities.
  • I believe families should not learn about donor milk for the first time in a moment of crisis, but feel informed and empowered ahead of time.
  • I believe in the power of generosity, one family supporting another through the gift of human milk.
  • I support efforts to make milk donation a common, respected act of care, just like blood donation.
  • I stand with medically fragile babies and the families who care for them.
