Requests for donor milk must be made by the parent, the court-appointed legal guardian/caretaker, or by someone who is licensed to provide medical care for the baby. Otherwise, in order to request milk for someone else please message the page for accommodation.

The Eats on Feets network operates on Facebook, with a local chapter for many areas, and on a Forum, which also has an App.

Our Facebook community groups are public, though posts can be made anonymously. We believe that there is safety in transparency and we believe that screening and approving members gives a false sense of security to our members.

Our Forum is accessible via registration only and free. Once signed up on the forum, members can message each other or connect via phone or social media.

Eats on Feets does not screen donors and recipients, nor do we match anyone. Our network is used for milksharing without third-party involvement. We can only accept requests from those who are legally or medically responsible for the baby in need and offers from the donors themselves.

Before posting, please read the 4 Pillars for specifics about screening donors or recipients and the safe handling of donated breastmilk. The Forum also has an app for your convenience!
