Donate Glass, Donate Life – Bottle Donation Campaign

Index

The donation of breast milk is very important for all babies who need a complete, natural food and without any contraindications. All moms who have surplus milk can and should donate to the milk bank closest to their home. But did you know that not only with milk can we collaborate with banks and collection stations for breast milk?

Few people know, but we can collaborate with the donation of glass bottles! You know that glass of some food product that we buy in the supermarket and that comes in a glass with a plastic lid? Yes, these bottles are suitable for storing donated breast milk . Glass does not accumulate smell or residue, it is easy to sterilize and clean and also inert so it is the perfect material to store breast milk in the freezer before or after pasteurization by milk banks. Donate Glass Donate Life Campaign

So can we say that the donation campaign is much bigger than we think right? Mobilization is much more than just the donation of breast milk, the donation of bottles is also very important.
That is why some institutions that manufacture glass are united in favor of this awareness, ABIVIDRO represents these companies and started a campaign to mobilize the donation of these bottles. The campaign is called “Donate Glass, Donate Life”. The campaign Donate glass doe life aims to return the glass on the market to hospitals and milk banks, which have great difficulty in finding this material. Annually more than 167 thousand bottles are neededto meet the demand for use. Last year, ABIVIDROS made a big donation to national milk banks, about 4700 thousand bottles were donated! But the more reuse of this noble material for the sake of the better! Donations of what could be dispensed are more than welcome.

It is worth remembering that the containers that are reused for the purpose of storing breast milk are:

  • Glass of mayonnaise
  • Glass of soluble coffee
  • Glass of Pastry Candy
  • Glass of jam

Any bottle with a wide mouth and plastic cap can be reused

All those containers with a plastic lid and a wide mouth can be reused by the milk banks to store the donated milk. The Doe Vidros Doe Vida campaign collects glass for the time being in the states of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. The collection stations for the glasses are in the milk banks and in some points of these states. An appropriate urn with the campaign logo is available to collect these donated glasses.

Just as important when milk, bottles play a very big role in breast milk donation campaigns like Donate Life Bottles , even if you don’t have an infant at home, you can encourage donation of the glass bottle. Donating will always be very good for those who receive it, but a greater good for those who make a gesture of solidarity, it is a unique feeling, collaborate!

My name is Dr. Alexis Hart I am 38 years old, I am the mother of 3 beautiful children! Different ages, different phases 16 years, 12 years and 7 years. In love with motherhood since always, I found it difficult to make my dreams come true, and also some more after I was already a mother.

Since I imagined myself as a mother, in my thoughts everything seemed to be much easier and simpler than it really was, I expected to get pregnant as soon as I wished, but it wasn’t that simple. The first pregnancy was smooth, but my daughter’s birth was very troubled. Joana was born in 2002 with a weight of 2930kg and 45cm, from a very peaceful cesarean delivery but she had already been born with congenital pneumonia due to a broken bag not treated with antibiotics even before delivery.
