<div>Miles for Milk – Helping Mothers Feed Their Babies in Calgary
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>When I was pregnant, I spent months planning to breastfeed my baby. I pictured the bond, the nourishment, and the natural ease of it all. But when the time came, I couldn’t.
</div>
<div>The emotional toll of not being able to breastfeed was heavier than I ever imagined. And to make matters worse, formula – the only way I could feed my son – came with a steep financial strain. No mother should ever feel heartbreak and stress just to make sure her baby is fed.
</div>
<div>That’s why I’m launching Miles for Milk this October: a community fundraiser where every kilometer run will raise money to provide formula for mothers right here in Calgary who need it most.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why Formula?
</div>
<div>In Canada, a single 900 g tin of powdered formula costs $35–45, and lasts only 5–7 days.
</div>
<div>Ready-to-feed bottles cost $3–4 each, and while more expensive, they are often the only safe and practical option for moms in crisis.
</div>
<div>A full month of formula can easily cost $250–400 per baby.
</div>
<div>For families already facing hardship, this cost is overwhelming.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My Goal
</div>
<div>I am personally committing to run 100 km in October for Miles for Milk.
</div>
<div>Every stride I take represents the strength and resilience of Calgary mothers who are doing everything they can to feed their babies.
</div>
<div>With your help, I hope to raise $5,000 – enough to provide months of formula support for local families.
</div>
<div>Every $10 donated = about 1 day of formula for a baby.
</div>
<div>Every $70 = about 1 week.
</div>
<div>Every $300 = about 1 month.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>How You Can Help
</div>
<div>Donate: Every dollar directly supports formula purchases for moms in Calgary.
</div>
<div>Run (or walk!) with me: Join “Miles for Milk” this October by logging your own kilometers, sharing your journey, and encouraging friends and family to donate.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Spread the word: Share this campaign with your community. The more people who know, the more babies we can help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why It Matters to Me
</div>
<div>I know firsthand the heartbreak of not being able to breastfeed, and the unexpected weight of turning to formula. I felt sadness, guilt, and financial pressure all at once. But I also felt relief when I realized formula meant my baby would thrive.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now, I want to give that same peace of mind to other mothers in Calgary. No one should ever have to choose between paying the bills and feeding their baby.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>✨ Please join me in this mission. Together, we can turn pain into purpose, one kilometre and one baby at a time.
</div>
