Those affected by breast or gynecologic cancer get insurance coverage for pumps, but not formula or donor milk. But let’s be real, coverage of breast pumps and lactation support when an individual has had their breasts removed is not supportive. Access to formula or donor breast milk isn’t a nice-to-have—it’s a matter of survival.
It's a major policy gap, and together, we can close it. We’re matching donations up to $25,000 to our changemaking partners in this work, non-profit organization, The Breasties! If you’re able to, anything and everything makes a difference!
Donate to the BreastiesThis year, we’re proud to offer a year’s worth of formula to 100 parents impacted by breast and gynecologic cancer.
Recently, we caught up with some of our amazing Bobbie Breasties, past and present to hear their stories.
Applications for the 2024 Class Closed on October 4th.
Since 2020, we’ve provided a year’s worth of Bobbie to nearly 300 parents impacted by breast and gynecologic cancer.
That being said, we know the community of people who can’t nurse is bigger than breast and gynecologic cancer. When we say this is the most rewarding work we do—we mean it.
