MaineHealth Waldo Hospital is a human milk depot (milk drop off site) for Mothers’ Milk Bank Northeast, a nonprofit human milk bank. MMBN collects breastmilk from mothers who have more than their babies need, then screens, pasteurizes, and tests the milk, after which it is dispensed primarily to premature and sick babies whose parents do not have enough milk for them.
Getting started with donating milk is an easy four-step process. Check out the basic guidelines here: Donate Breast Milk • Mothers’ Milk Bank Northeast
