The Canadian Breastfeeding Foundation promotes breastfeeding and mother-infant health through donations to breastfeeding education programs and other initiatives.

Welcome to the Canadian Breastfeeding Foundation website!

Find a lactation consultant to help you with breastfeeding

One beneficiary of the foundation is the Goldfarb Breastfeeding Program of the Herzl Family Practice Centre in Montreal's Sir Mortimer B. Davis-Jewish General Hospital. The program supports Montreal's only public, free, hospital-based breastfeeding clinic. It offers clinical training for obstetrical fellows, medical students, nurses, and candidates for the International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners (IBLCE) exam who intend to become International Board Certified Lactation Consultants. The program also supports a breastfeeding research group. The program receives no government funding and therefore relies on private donations.

We are happy to announce the Canadian Breastfeeding Foundation is currently accepting online donations on behalf of the Newman Breastfeeding Clinic and Institute.

The primary function of the Newman Breastfeeding Clinic and Institute is to assist breastfeeding mothers and their babies. Additionally, this facility offers clinical training for pediatric residents, medical students, nurses, and candidates for the International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners (IBLCE) exam who intend to become International Board Certified Lactation Consultants.

The donations will be gathered and tax receipts for these donations will be issued on behalf of the Canadian Breastfeeding Foundation via Canada Helps which is an online donation service for non-profit organizations.

Donations may be made via our website. Simply click on the "Donate Now" button in the left hand column and follow the instructions. When you are asked where you wish to direct the use of your donation, please be sure to indicate that you wish your donation to be used to benefit the Newman Breastfeeding Clinic and Institute.

If you wish to make your donation via check or money order, please contact us at info@canadianbreastfeedingfoundation.org and we will be happy to assist you.
