August news & updates
Goodbye Antoinette!
Farewell and good luck to our Milk Bank Assistant Antoinette Mattis!
Antoinette is leaving NYMB to pursue a career in nursing. She has grace and style and will be a valued member of any nursing team lucky enough to have her!
Welcome Wilca!
Wilca is our new Milk Bank Assistant. She is a Certified Lactation Counselor and spends her free time supporting mothers in their breastfeeding journeys. Wilca loves to spend time with her son, go to the gym and try new food!
NYMB Volunteers
Here are our new RISE volunteers Rebeca and Tamisha with RISE staff member Carmen. They wrapped baby blankets, made boxes, folded towels, and shredded paper. They were so helpful!
Milk Drop Off at NYMB!
We love meeting our donors when they drop off their milk directly at NYMB!
"Sharing with her 1,579 TikTok followers, Linh Ta (known as @ahlingaling on the platform) posted a video last week showing how she made a breastmilk face mask for her baby. Since then, the video has been viewed over 4 million times and has amassed half a million likes."
