Infant Formula Assistance
Nourishing Little Ones, Supporting Families
At Sweet Cheeks Diaper Ministry, we understand that every baby deserves the best start in life. For families unable to breastfeed, infant formula becomes a lifeline—but the cost can be overwhelming. Our Formula Bank provides crucial support to struggling families, ensuring that no baby goes without.
Why Infant Formula Matters
Infant formula provides essential nutrients babies need to grow and thrive, but for many families, it’s an unaffordable necessity. The high cost of formula forces parents to make impossible choices—sometimes watering down formula or skipping feedings just to make it last longer.
The High Cost of Formula
Formula expenses quickly add up, creating financial strain for families:
- $1,500+ per year for basic formula.
- Specialty formulas (for allergies or medical needs) can cost twice as much.
- Ready-to-feed formulas are the most expensive but often essential for babies with sensitivities.
The Growing Need for Formula Assistance
- 1 in 4 families struggles to provide basic needs for their children.
- Formula is the second most requested item after diapers.
- Since the COVID-19 pandemic, the need for baby formula has doubled.
At Sweet Cheeks Formula Bank, we are working to bridge this gap, ensuring every baby has access to the nourishment they need.
