Volunteer
SCBC needs volunteers to fulfill its mission and vision. At this time, we have no paid staff. We rely on volunteers to advocate for South Carolina Breastfeeding Families, push South Carolina’s laws and policies toward being breastfeeding friendly, educate health care providers, bring together those in the community and involved professionally, and to fund-raise to support these efforts. We are also looking for volunteers who may be available to assist lactating families during disasters. Please consider sharing your time and talents with us.
