World Breastfeeding Week, a global celebration of breastfeeding families and their supporters, is August 1-7 this year. We want your help to make it special for Chicagoland mamas and their kiddos!

We are Breastfeed Chicago, a mom-powered non-profit organization with over 22,000 followers. We support breastfeeding families through mother-to-mother support, the connection to local resources, and advocacy on their behalf.

We’re asking YOU for a simple video (phone camera is fine!) at 20 seconds or less.

Talking point examples are:

Why you decided to breastfeed.

Breastfeeding is great for moms and babies.

Congrats to all the parents who breastfeed their children and the professionals who support them.

Keep creating a breastfeeding-friendly Chicagoland.

You can send your video to [email protected] or direct message us @BFChgo. We’ll Tweet it, post it on our Facebook group and feature it on our website for World Breastfeeding Week!
