Sponsors & Funders

Thank you to all our sponsors and funders. Whether publicly and privately supporting Milk Matters, every cent counts and helps make it possible to feed premature babies on a daily basis.

PathCare

Pathcare

The initial testing of all our breastmilk donors for HIV and Hepatitis B is sponsored by PathCare.  Each Milk Matters breast milk donor undergoes screening for HIV and Hepatatis B as part of the initial screening process, and having the costs of these blood tests covered by Pathcare makes a big difference.

Thank you, Pathcare, for your loyal support for many years.

When Milk Matters told me that preemies needed just 50ml a day to survive and I was feeding my son breastmilk all day long, I wanted to help and knew I could.
