About

Overview

Located in southwest Fort Worth near Benbrook, Mothers’ Milk Bank of North Texas (MMBNT) is a nonprofit organization founded in 2004 to provide premature and critically ill infants with donor human milk when their own mother’s milk is not available.

Thanks to the generous donations from more than 9,000 donors, more than 5 million ounces of donated breastmilk have been dispensed to the babies who need it most.

Home

A prescription for donor human milk is required for outpatient babies. Milk is prioritized to hospitalized infants first and then to outpatients. Parents can inquire about receiving donor milk at hospital discharge or when their baby is already home. We are happy to assist parents in filing insurance and obtaining coverage for milk processing fees based on a sliding scale.
