Our Campaign
In honor of Prematurity Awareness Month and the thousands of dedicated Neonatal healthcare professionals nationwide, Medela hosted a Virtual Human Milk Collection Campaign.

In November -- 4,158 people registered a vote to help their local Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).  The four NICUs listed above (one from each of Medela's four regional divisions) garnered the most votes and will receive at least $5,000 worth of Medela human milk-related products or education services for their NICUs.

Human Milk Matters!
Medela is committed to helping mothers provide more human milk because research shows that the more human milk feedings, the better the health outcomes for infants.  To learn more about what human milk means to the premature infant click here
