Breastfeeding–Friendly Businesses and Breastfeeding–Friendly Employers
Do you know of a company, healthcare office or church/synagogue or mosque that welcomes breastfeeding mothers and babies? If so, encourage them to apply for recognition. They will receive a window peel-off decal, a plaque and inclusion in the registry of Breastfeeding–Friendly Businesses on the NC Breastfeeding Coalition’s website www.ncbfc.org. Recognition is also available for Breastfeeding–Friendly Employers. There are $500 grants available to NC companies wanting to be more Breastfeeding–Friendly Businesses! Monies may be spent on improvements such as installing a sink, a door lock or buying a comfortable chair. The deadline for grant applications is May 12th, 2010, but the recognition will be on-going. The applications for recognition are available on the North Carolina Breastfeeding coalition website (www.ncbfc.org ), or you can contact the coordinator of the Business Case for Breastfeeding grant, Mimi McCully, at mimimccu@gmail.com.
