Donor milk
Like blood donors, milk donors come from all backgrounds. Some mothers have too much milk and like to help others. Sometimes, a mother whose baby has passed away might donate milk to help her get through her loss by helping other babies. The OhioHealth Mothers’ Milk Bank follows strict guidelines to ensure the safety of banked human milk.
