    The Bridge Milk Fund is available for families in need of donor milk who are unable to purchase it. Families who qualify for WIC and/or Medi-Cal are able to receive 40-100 ounces at no cost if their case meets one of the following qualifications:

    • Newborn (under 1 month) - Mother's own milk is not in yet. Donor milk is needed to "bridge" until mother's milk comes in.
    • Medical necessity - Families in the process of pursuing insurance coverage for donor milk. Donor milk is needed to "bridge" until potential insurance authorization.

    The aim of the fund is to help families keep their child exclusively breastfed, if possible.

    Thank you for supporting families in their breastfeeding journey.
