When Jill Youse, a 29-year old breastfeeding mother found that she had more breastmilk than her daughter, Stella, could drink, she searched for a place to send her milk. Jill located an orphange in Durban, South Africa where orphans with HIV and AIDS are cared for. Knowing the potential impact of human milk on the immune system of babies with AIDS, Jill decided to use a $1000 gift from her Grandmother, to establish the International Breast Milk Project (IBMP).

Since January 2006, Jill has delivered nearly 1000 bottles of breastmilk ans plans to expand her project with the establishment of two new milk banks in Cameroon, West Africa. For more information about the IBMP and to see how you can help visit the IBMP website.
