Northwest Mothers Milk Bank

Last updated Jun 2026

About

Northwest Mothers Milk Bank is an HMBANA-accredited nonprofit that collects, screens, and pasteurizes donated human milk, then dispenses it to fragile and premature infants across the region. Healthy lactating people with extra milk can apply to become donors, dropping frozen milk at the Tigard office or regional milk drops. Families and hospitals can order pasteurized donor milk. Reach them at (503) 469-0955 or info@nwmmb.org.
