  • After partnering with several Divine Nine fraternities and sororities to support their maternal health programs I realized that our work could be further amplified if we worked together. We also had 2 Divine Nine organizations as cosponsors of Breastfeeding Awareness Day in 2023. We recognize the importance of the work that each organization does for the community and believe when we work together the community WINS.

  • We welcome all Greek organizations and fraternal orders to join us in the fight to improve breastfeeding outcomes. We invite you to consider becoming a cosponsor for Breastfeeding Awareness Day 2024 on August 10, 2024. Email admin@somiclients.com with subject line BADNY to express your interest.
