MILK PROGRAM SPONSORSHIP: HOW IT WORKS This is one of our Milk Program Babies! Our milk programs provided much-needed milk and nutrition to malnourished babies. Most babies are in our milk program for about a year. Upon signing up to sponsor a Milk Program Baby, you will receive a photo of your baby. Throughout the year, you can expect quarterly updates on your baby's health via email. Once your baby reaches about a year old and is healthy, you will be sent a graduation photo! You will then be matched with a new baby in need of sponsorship.
