Just a heads up for those who haven't been to Seven Sisters before. Parking is a bit of a challenge since the business only has about 5 parking spots. There are lots of street side parking spots though.

I know Im not on the board or anything, but I do have a fundraising idea.

Chico Bags, a reusable shopping bag, will allow you to do fundraising with them. I used to run co-ops for these bags and talked to my contact about the fundraising program. The website says its for schools, but really anyone can do it. Basically the bags cost $5 regular. With the fundraiser you still charge that, but only pay $2.50 to Chico Bag and you keep $2.50. They can even be personalized with your logo.

So yah, just an idea. :)

This looks like a great movie. It's the trailer for a new documentary called "Formula Fed America" -- it kind of looks like it's done in the same style as "The Business of Being Born." Andrea - is it out yet? Maybe it's the kind of thing Get PUMPed! can do a screening of.

Jessica Lynn Waters I wish this group was around when my baby was born. I never produced milk and my daughter became ill and dehydrated. I had no one to help with milk so I had to resort to formula. It's great what you're doing!

Andrea McCoy Branagan This is a great site for pregnancy and breastfeeding when concerned about medications: http://www.safefetus.com/ (I know Get PUMPed! prefers donors to be free of all meds.) I just think it's a good resource to have on hand.

www.safefetus.com
SafeFetus.com – a site for Drugs in Pregnancy - is a complete online database of worldwide medications (generic drugs & trade names) that provides brief information on the drugs’ indication, fetal risk, breast feeding risk as well as its risk category according to the FDA
