The Mothers’ Milk Bank at Austin (MMBA) is not the typical bank and the value of the currency is priceless to those in need. The interest gained by each deposit will not change an economic crisis and is not evident on a monthly statement but rather expressed from recipient families. The MMBA is a non-profit organization whose mission is to accept, pasteurize and dispense donor human milk by physician prescription primarily to premature and ill infants. The milk bank has been proudly serving babies in Central Texas and beyond for 10 years and is quickly growing. As the premature birth rate increases so does the demand for donor milk. The need now is greater than ever! See how you can become a lifesaving donor today by visiting
