For Mums undergoing cancer treatments and babies who can’t take formula for instance, Mothers Milk Bank Charity (MMBC) supply life-saving breastmilk donated from other Mums.
This helps prevent a serious condition called Necrotising Enterocolitis, which kills more babies each year than childhood leukaemia.
But their current funding is soon coming to an end.

Chuffed asks can you chip in now to keep breastmilk in reach for families in need?
One recipient wrote to the charity saying: “To be able to supply my little girl with human milk, even though it wasn't mine, took a huge pressure off me. I know my baby thanks you, and my husband certainly thanks you as it saved him from a lot more tears than he already had to deal with.”
Just $50 covers cold transportation delivery for a family in need. But anything you can afford will help Mothers Milk Bank Charity pay for bottles, pasteurisation and safety testing.
