Indiana Mothers' Milk Bank
The Indiana Mothers' Milk Bank, Inc. helps premature and sick infants by
connecting those in need of human milk with screened donor mothers. The milk
bank receives human milk from these donors, then pasteurizes, freezes and
distributes it. The milk bank is a community-based, community-supported entity that benefits
Indiana's babies and decreases health care expenditures. The not-for-profit milk bank is the first of its kind in Indiana and one of
only 10 in the United States.
HELP A PREMATURE OR ILL
INFANT!
Due to the overwhelming demand for pasteurized donor human milk from
hospitals in Indiana and throughout the Midwest, the Indiana Mothers' Milk Bank
is always looking for new donors! Please contact a member of the milk bank
staff if you are interested in becoming a donor or go to the How to Donate page.
If you cannot donate human milk, don't worry! You can still
help us help premature or ill infants. We are currently looking for the
following equipment to help us expand and improve the health of even more
infants and children in Indiana and throughout the Midwest. If you or
your business would be willing to donate or help us acquire any of the
equipment below, please contact Janice O'Rourke, Executive Director, by phone
at 317-329-7147 or by email at jorourke@immb.org.
