Become a Milk Bank Ambassador!

I’m Emily Hoppe the newest member of the Mothers’ Milk Bank at Austin’s team.  As Outreach Coordinator, I’m excited to share the Milk Bank’s mission with the community, and raise awareness of the critical need for milk donors.  I can’t wait to hear your stories and work with donors, both current and former, to spread the word about the Mothers’ Milk Bank.  It has been amazing to see the excitement and energy that milk bank supporters have for the mission. 

Last year 480 incredible mothers donated their extra milk to MMBA, and together they helped save the lives of premature and ill infants in 80 hospitals across 15 states!  I’m thrilled to announce the Milk Donor Alumnae program is up on its feet again and ready to find new Milk Bank Ambassadors and reconnect with past members.  Donors and retired donors make the most amazing spokespeople for the Mothers’ Milk Bank and are an important link to the community of potential new donors who can continue to save precious babies’ lives.  I see every day the passion and selflessness in women that want to make a difference in the future generations.  Let us know if you want to continue to help the Milk Bank grow and serve even more fragile infants.

There are many different ways to get involved - something for everyone - from sharing your story on Facebook to distributing outreach materials in your community.  It starts with a short conversation with me to decide how you can best help.  We e will provide you with the materials you need to share the Milk Bank’s mission.  We would not be able to serve some many little ones without you!

If you would like to be a Milk Bank Ambassador please contact me at Emily@milkbank.org or 512-579-3971.
