Milk donations going strong in area (Oshkosh Northwestern)

Peggy Toman had stored enough donated breast milk in her boutique to feed a single newborn for two months.


At least 2,000 ounces of breast milk were transported Monday from the local breast milk donation depot, on its way to the Mother's Milk Bank of Ohio for processing and shipment to mothers who have a prescription for it.


Monday's shipment is the largest the depot has sent since it began collecting donated breast milk in November.


The Nurturing Mother's Boutique, 2050 W. Ninth Ave., has since shipped about 3,000 ounces, including Monday's shipment.
