We’re grateful to the many people who have supported human milk feeding systems change work through Facebook fundraisers. 💙

Often created in lieu of gifts for birthdays or other special events, these fundraisers are a meaningful way to give. 🤱🏽

Thank you for helping build a more just, equitable, and breastfeeding-supportive culture.

This Independence Day, we reflect not only on freedom as an ideal, but on the work still required to make freedom real for everyone. 🖤

We envision an America where people are safe, valued, and hopeful - free from racism, violence, family separation, detention centers, misogyny, discrimination, oppression, and systems that cause harm. A nation where compassion overcomes cruelty, justice replaces inequity, and communities are built on dignity, care, and belonging.

We know that our current national landscape lacks the policies needed to bring this vision to fruition; however, we can act where we stand. As lactation professionals, we invite you to watch the May 2026 webinar entitled “Caring in Crisis: Best Practices for Birth and Lactation Support When Families Fear Detention.” Register at mibreastfeeding.org/webinars.
