re: rachel myr’s question Thu, 21 Jan 2010 posted “I can't find anything under the FAQs stating that IMBP has changed management or 'processing partner'.  It says they partnered with Prolacta for a shipment in connection with World Aids Day, Dec 1 2009.  Naomi, did you get your info off their website  (and if so, why can't I find it?)”

 

me either (didn’t notice anything on IBMP’s website mentioning a connection between the two). 

 

on prolacta’s website, http://www.prolacta.com/faq.php,

question #4 “Is prolacta a milk bank?”/ answer:  No. We assist in the organization of independently run and operated affiliate milk banks. The only exception to this is the International Breast Milk Project (IBMP) Bank ( <http://breastmilkproject.org/> Visit website), which we operate to support the IBMP, a non-profit organization that provides free donor breast milk to infants who have been orphaned by  <http://www.prolacta.com/faq.php> HIV HIV
Human immunodeficiency virus is the virus that causes acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). in Africa

 

also on prolacta’s site  <http://www.prolacta.com/faq_abbott.php> http://www.prolacta.com/faq_abbott.php 2. “What is the value of the Abbott Nutrition/Prolacta Bioscience co-promotion agreement to health care professionals?”

Unfortunately I was drinking coffee which I sputtered out, when I read the answer that “Abbott Nutrition is committed to ensuring optimal infant nutrition and has a long history of supporting breastfeeding with health care professionals and mothers by providing breastfeeding education materials, programs and infant nutrition products specifically designed for human milk fortification.” (emphasis mine)

 

Really? They do support breastfeeding?!?!? Wow!!!! J

 (from where I mailed a small box of six (15oz each) cans of green beans to a friend in OSLO NORWAY for postage of 29€uro! It weighed less than 3kg! rachel myr, do YOU have canned green beans in kristiansand norway? My friend said I saved her new year’s dinner party by sending those green beans. But that postage is more than I paid to send a Wii and Wii fit to my parents in the states for christmas!)
