Before the shortages, Preemie Project would see two to three families per day needing formula, but that number has skyrocketed.
Mandy Booth, Director of the Dothan Preemie Project expresses, “We’ve had a lot of moms call, ‘Do y’all have this formula I’ve been to Chipley, I’ve been to Bonifay, I come to Dothan, I went to Enterprise, I can’t find it, do y’all have it?’ and I’ll say yes ma’am we do you can come get it and we’ve had moms come in and I
hand them two cans of formula which I don’t think is a lot, and them break down in tears because that’s formula that they could not find and now they’re gonna have that little bit of security and know that their babies are gonna get fed.”Those dropping off formula donations or those in need of formula are welcome to stop by.
