Imagine a new mother, cradling her newborn, filled with love but also uncertainty. She wants to breastfeed, knowing it’s one of the best things she can do for her child. But she faces stigma, a lack of support, and often, misleading marketing that pushes her towards alternatives. At BMSG, we believe no mother should face these challenges alone.
Your donation can empower mothers with the confidence, knowledge, and community they need to make informed decisions about breastfeeding. With your support, we will: 1. Support Mental Wellness: We train our volunteers to recognise and respond to the emotional challenges of breastfeeding, in line with the National Mental Health and Well-being Strategy. 2. Provide Free Counselling & Peer Support: Our trained counsellors offer vital support to mothers, many of whom feel overwhelmed or isolated. 3. Drive Public Awareness: Through various events and our picture book celebrating Singapore’s diverse breastfeeding families, we normalise breastfeeding as a nurturing, empowered choice. 4. Advocate for Change: We work with workplaces and agencies to create breastfeeding-friendly environments so mothers can continue their journey even after returning to work. 5. Invest in Volunteers: Our passionate volunteers—mothers who’ve been there—receive ongoing training to keep their skills sharp and their hearts strong. We power all of this with just two part-time staff and a dedicated team of volunteers. Your donation directly sustains our programmes and operations. Let’s build a future where mothers feel supported and confident of breastfeeding. Donate today. Empower a mother. Strengthen a family!
