Wondering how to do this?

 

We are asking you to take 60 seconds of your time today to designate the San Diego Breastfeeding Center Foundation as your charitable recipient for Amazon Smile.  All you have to do is go to their website (smile.amazon.com) and choose the San Diego Breastfeeding Center Foundation as your Amazon Smile recipient.  Or you can click on our direct charity link (https://smile.amazon.com/ch/81-1935497) Then as you make your diaper, nipple cream, baby toy, book, etc purchases from this site, the SDBFC Foundation will receive 0.5% of every purchase, at no extra cost to you.  This money will go directly to paying for lactation consultations for families in need.

“I came across the San Diego Breastfeeding Center thanks to Robin Kaplan, who taught my breastfeeding class during my pregnancy. I was worried I was not going to be able to breastfeed when I had my baby, and shared with her my questions and concerns. She pointed out to me that, when and if the time came, I should contact the Center for further assistance. 

After delivery, I discovered many challenges to successfully feed my baby: from painful latch to low milk supply, and I almost gave up on breastfeeding several times. The Center gave me the support, education and materials I needed to continue, in the most loving manner. Since I experienced several problems along the way and needed more than one appointment, it was very helpful for me and my family to have access to this resource for only $25. If this had been any different, I’m certain I would have stopped.

Thanks to the Foundation, my child is receiving the best nourishment I could provide and I am very grateful for that. Programs like this are silent saviors for women like me, since we don’t know we will need them until we do. Hence, the importance of making them affordable for families like mine, that may not be able to pay for the consultations full price.
