THANK YOU EVERYONE! I'm overwhelmed by your support. I'm stopping the fundraiser for now, so I can figure out how to buy this much formula! You are all the best. 

$20 feeds a 4-month-old for 1 week

My baby is 4 months old. Due to shortages in the US, formula has now disappeared in my Brooklyn neighborhood. I have options (family in Canada to ship me supplements), but I've learned that my low-income neighbors have resorted to mixing milk and water for their babies.

 

This weekend, I am going to Canada for the long weekend. While there, I'm planning to stock up on formula for my neighbors. Reverend Adriene Thorne, the pastor at First Presbyterian Church of Brooklyn , has agreed to help me distribute it to families who need it most.

 

I know there are SO many great causes that need money right now, but if you feel inclined, I would be so grateful if you could give a few dollars towards feeding babies. For reference, one can of formula is about $20 (and feeds a 4-month-old for about a week).
