Healthy Horizons has a long-standing relationship with the Mothers' Milk Bank California (formerly San Jose Milk Bank), dating back to 1990. Our founder, Sheila Janakos, MPH, IBCLC, LE, RLC was a dedicated milk donor, and Healthy Horizons served as a milk depot for over a decade, deeply committed to supporting families in need. This early experience ignited a passion and partnership dedicated to our community partners at the Mothers' Milk Bank. We're proud to continue our 35+ year partnership by hosting milk drives at our Breastfeeding Center in Burlingame, California and by welcoming the Milk Bank’s current Chief Executive Officer, Jennifer Benito-Kowalski. Learn about Jennifer’s inspirational story below and her commitment to human milk banking within our community.
