You ask a good question, Karleen.  I had wondered this myself, but I think if 
pumps are given to mothers in the community who stats show are LESS likely 
to breastfeed, then giving them a pump might be the incentive they need to 
at least try.  The original post did mention that the pumps would be intended 
for mother who have to deal with early separation from babies due to needing 
to work.
