I've written a couple of times about the International Breast Milk Project, which has been sending shipments of breastmilk to AIDS orphans in South Africa.
I've been so disturbed by the connection between HIV/AIDS and breastfeeding, and so impressed that this organization has managed to get boxes of milk half way around the world.
The organization is holding a "Run for Africa" fundraiser on February 10th, and there's still time to sign up. The event is a 2.6 mile treadmill "mini-marathon." Gyms will provide free access to treadmills for the event. You can also complete the event outside.
If you're looking for some way to make a contribution to an organization supporting breastfeeding as part of the Motherwear Pledge, consider donating or running for this project!
