We are on a mission.
 

Donor Milk Saves Lives

Mothers’ Milk Bank of Tennessee is dedicated to ensuring that the most fragile infants receive the lifesaving nutrition they need to survive and thrive. Through the generosity of screened milk donors, we provide safe, pasteurized donor human milk to hospitals and families across the Southeast.

 Research shows that feeding premature and low birth weight babies only human milk can reduce mortality by up to 75%.

Mothers make miracles possible when they donate their extra milk to Mothers’ Milk Bank of Tennessee because we serve the most vulnerable infants in the Southeast. Each year, hundreds of extraordinary moms volunteer to share their excess milk to advance our mission. Our milk donors are improving outcomes for preterm and critical infants with every ounce of their lifesaving milk. 

Request Milk

Mothers’ Milk Bank of Tennessee is now making safe donor human milk more accessible by serving hospitals and families at home in need of donor milk. 

The Rosie Funs assists families in need of financial assistance for donor milk at home.
