From the diverse health benefits, to the increased bonding experience or even to the advanced weight loss, there are many reasons why a woman decides to breastfeed. Now Ameda’s “I Breastfeed Because…” campaign is giving women a voice to share why they made the decision to breastfeed.
About the campaign:
Ameda, a proven leader in breast pump innovation and trusted by moms and hospitals for over 65 years, launches the “I Breastfeed Because…” campaign to give moms a voice on this important subject in time for World Breastfeeding Month in August. Mothers who are currently breastfeeding, or have in the past, are encouraged to log onto www.ibreastfeedbecause.com to upload 20-second videos that share the reasons why they chose to breastfeed.
For each video uploaded, tweet or video comment, Ameda will make a charitable donation to the Human Milk Banking Association of North America, a non-profit association of donor human milk banks established in 1985 to set standards for and to facilitate establishment and operation of milk banks in America. All those who participate are also automatically entered to win a grand prize of a $2,500 nursery makeover or one of 25 secondary prizes, $50 American Express gift cards. While World Breastfeeding Month is in August, this campaign will run through September.
To draw attention to the campaign, Bethenny Frankel of Bravo TV’s hit show “Bethenny Getting Married” shared her honest take on why she decided to breastfeed her daughter. “Breastfeeding was very important to me because it is the healthiest option out there and has allowed me to bond with my baby in a way no one else can,” says Bethenny. “Breastfeeding is such an incredible experience and I feel so lucky that I get to share my story with women nationwide through the show and Ameda’s I Breastfeed Because campaign.”
A noble idea to donate for charity, the upload of the video will help lots of women who has doubts,questions over breastfeeding.
