I have made a couple connections through Eats on Feets for donor milk for my daughter. I also have a couple friends who pump here and there for us. I am so grateful for it since I have trouble producing enough milk and really want to stick with just breastmilk. As for the milk bank, we have one but at $4.25 and ounce it is way out of my range.
