Text Box: "The NMC made me feel supported when it came to everything from renting a breast pump, ideas for how to boost my milk supply, and emotional support in the most trying times. I really might not have succeeded in my breastfeeding goals had the NMC not been there for me. When I saw how lovely and knowledgeable the volunteers were, I decided that I would donate my time to support women too, and now I’m a Peer Counselor." ~ Bethy A.

Since 1977 thanks to generous supporters and volunteers Nursing Mothers Counsel of Oregon  has succeeded in providing support, promotion and protection of breastfeeding within our community. To continue helping 12,000 moms and their babies annually, we welcome all levels of donation, whether it’s a one-time gift, a monthly donation, or employer matching gift programs.

NMC is presently an all  volunteer run and has no physical office space to maintain, therefore we are able to keep our overhead very low and you will be pleased to know that nearly 100% of all donated funds go directly to pay for the important services NMC provides to low income families within our community.  

Below are a few examples of how your financial gift aids to support, promote and protect breastfeeding, insuring better health and stronger bonding for women and their children.
