Nurture Columbus Lactation Services

A BIG thank you to for a grant to our Hardship Fund to help cover lactation care for those in need!

The Nurture Columbus Pay-It-Forward Hardship Fund exists to make in-home lactation support accessible to all families in Central Ohio, regardless of income or insurance coverage. The fund reduces or waives consultation fees for families experiencing financial hardship, ensuring every family can receive high-quality, compassionate care from an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC).
