NORFOLK, Va., Jan. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Momcozy, a global leader in innovative breastfeeding solutions, is proud to announce a donation of 50 wearable breast pumps – including 25Momcozy M5 Breast Pumps and 25Momcozy V1 Breast Pumps – to The King’s Daughters Milk Bank at Children’s Hospital of The King’s Daughters (CHKD) in Norfolk, Virginia. This contribution underscores Momcozy’s commitment to supporting mothers, infants, and families through advanced, accessible, and comfortable breast-pumping technology.
Momcozy’s Breast Pump Donation to The King’s Daughters Milk Bank at Children’s Hospital of The King’s Daughters
At The King’s Daughters Milk Bank, 80% of milk donors are working moms, many of whom pump on the go, between shifts, or during limited breaks. Momcozy’s best-in-class wearable pumps will support these donors by making it easier to continue expressing milk consistently and comfortably. Through their generosity, these donors provide lifesaving nourishment for premature and medically fragile infants throughout the United States.
Every ounce of Pasteurized Donated Human Milk (PDHM) can be used for the treatment of up to 4 premature infants in the NICU. On average, a donor with The King’s Daughters Milk Bank contributes more than 800 ounces over the course of their donation tenure. Based on this average, the breast pump donation could help to generate more than 42,000 ounces of human milk donations, equivalent to 168,000 individual feedings for medically fragile infants in the NICU. This volume of milk could provide a full day of essential nutritional support for approximately 21,000 NICU babies.
For NICU babies, breast milk is as valuable as a medicine. Compared to formula, it can reduce the risk of mortality by up to 80% and significantly decrease the occurrence of complications such as life threatening bowel infections, severe vision impairment, and chronic lung disease.
“We are honored to be working with The King’s Daughters Milk Bank at CHKD to help make human milk donation and pumping more accessible for lactating families willing to share their extra breast milk with premature and medically fragile infants,” said Eden Cali, U.S. PR Lead at Momcozy. “Because so many donors are working mothers, we know that wearable pumps can significantly reduce barriers to consistent pumping. We hope these pumps bring comfort and convenience to volunteer donors, contributing to increased availability of pasteurized donor human milk for NICUs along the East Coast.”
“We are incredibly grateful for Momcozy’s generous donation and commitment to supporting nonprofit milk donation, breastfeeding families, and our nation’s most vulnerable infants. These wearable pumps will make a tremendous difference for the milk donors that we support, and in turn, help our team to increase the available supply of pasteurized donor human milk for infants in the NICU,” said Ashlynn Baker, BSN, RN, IBCLC, Director of Milk Bank Services at CHKD.
Momcozy’s donation will empower The King’s Daughters Milk Bank’s dedicated team and altruistic milk donors to further their reach, deepen their impact, and advance their mission – reducing obstacles that stand in the way of equitable access to human milk and lactation support.
