๐Ÿ’›On November 3, we had the incredible honor of welcoming Governor JB Pritzker, State Senator Laura Murphy, and State Representative Michelle Mussman to Milk Bank WGL for a facility tour and discussion about the life-saving impact of donor milk.

Families who have been impacted shared their inspiring stories with laughter and tears.
Weโ€™re so grateful for the growing support of leaders, families, and advocates who believe every baby deserves the best possible start in life. ๐Ÿ’›

Last week we had the honor of co-hosting a film screening of Americaโ€™s Stillbirth Crisis: Before a Breath. We were joined by the producer of the film, Duaa Eldeib. This poignant film brought our community together for reflection, connection, and action. Thank you to everyone who joined the conversation and helped shine light on this critical issue, including Gifts From Liam, The Family Connects Chicago Pregnancy & Infant Loss (FCC PAIL) Subcommittee, Sids of Illinois, and Sinai Chicago.๐Ÿ’ซ
