UAMS Milk Bank UAMS Milk Bank works to improve the health of Arkansas’ most vulnerable infants with safe donor milk

The mission of the UAMS Milk Bank is to improve the health of Arkansas’ most vulnerable infants through safe donor milk. The UAMS Milk Bank collects, screens, processes and distributes donated milk to meet the specific medical needs of individuals for whom it is prescribed. The primary beneficiaries of milk banks are infants in neonatal intensive care units, particularly premature or ill infants. In addition, the UAMS Milk Bank values clinical excellence, ethical practice, community education and research to ensure that all individuals with a medical need will have access to pasteurized donor milk.

💜 DID YOU KNOW? DONOR MILK MATTERS! 🍼

For premature and medically fragile babies, donor human milk can make a meaningful difference. When a mother’s own milk is unavailable, screened and pasteurized donor milk provides important nutrition to support these vulnerable infants.

Every ounce donated represents compassion, generosity, and hope for a baby who needs it. 💜

✨ One gift. A lasting impact. Healthier beginnings.

💗 Honoring Strength, Spreading Awareness, and Supporting Every Mother.

This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the UAMS Milk Bank stands with all the mothers and families affected by breast cancer.

For mothers navigating breast cancer treatment, decisions about breastfeeding and milk donation can be deeply personal. Every family's journey is unique, and support, compassion, and access to accurate information matter.

Let's raise awareness, encourage early detection, and celebrate the strength of those facing breast cancer.

💗 Together, we can make a difference.

Behind every bottle of donor milk is a community of people who care. 💜

From the mother who shares her extra milk, to the milk depot that helps collect it, to the healthcare professionals who make sure it reaches the babies who need it—we are all part of something bigger.

Together, we are helping give Arkansas babies a stronger start. 🍼

Thank you to everyone who supports the mission of the UAMS Milk Bank!

🍼 Milk Myth Monday

MYTH: Only mothers with a huge freezer stash can become milk donors.

FACT: Every donation counts!

Whether you have 150 ounces or 1,500 ounces, your donated milk helps nourish babies whose own mothers cannot provide enough milk.

The UAMS Milk Bank carefully screens donors and pasteurizes every donation to ensure safety for vulnerable infants.

Small donations make a BIG impact.
