Who is the nestie that works at Open Door/Lydia House?

I'm wondering if the LH has any need for a Medela In Style breast pump.  I get very angry everytime I look in the closet and see it in the corner. I used it for six weeks and barely produced, so I gave up because my LO was on formula by then.

 If LH doesn't need it, if anyone else knows of a deserving mom, let me know...I just want to get it out of my house.

 Thanks!

  • The WCA (formally the YWCA) may also be able utilize it. They act as the main domestic violence shelter in Omaha. Heartland family services in Sarpy county is the DV shelter there. I refer most of my clients to the WCA.

  • xoamy is the contact for heartland on here but she is on vacation right now.  Also, I don't know if you consign anywhere but you could always consign it.
  • I highly doubt they will take it.  That pump is not meant to be used by multiple users per the FDA.  I imagine they would only be allowed to take hospital-grade pumps.
  • Hey-my husband still works there.  I can have him ask if there is a mom staying there that might need one.

    Otherwise, if you still wanted to donate it, the Timberlake Outreach Center would take it and pass it on to a mom-in-need that lives in the community.

  • Thanks Patti!   If you could let me know that would be great.
