PHARR, Texas – The Pharr Public Health Department will host a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony on Wednesday, March 4, at 11:00 AM at Pharr ONE (1121 E. Nolana Loop) to celebrate the opening of a new Breast Milk Donation Site in partnership with Mothers’ Milk Bank at Austin, along with the launch of its new wellness room.
The new milk depot provides a convenient local drop-off site for approved donors, making it easier for local mothers to donate extra breast milk to help premature, sick, and medically fragile infants. Mothers’ Milk Bank at Austin supplies pasteurized donor human milk to hospitals across Texas and nationwide, ensuring vulnerable babies receive lifesaving nutrition when their mother’s own milk is unavailable. Women interested in becoming donors may call 1-877-813-6455 or visit milkbank.org. All screening costs are covered by Mothers’ Milk Bank at Austin.
In addition, Pharr ONE will unveil its new wellness room, a dedicated space designed to support mental and emotional well-being, lactation and milk donation support, stress reduction, and caregiver and community care.
The Wellness Room features:
- Dimmable lighting for sensory comfort
- Waterfall feature and calming sound machine
- Aromatherapy
- Meditation and guided breathing tools
- Creative arts for stress relief
- Movement and light exercise equipment
- Self-monitoring health station
The space is designed to provide families with a calming environment to relax, reset, and recharge. The wellness room will be available Monday–Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM by appointment at (956) 402-4652.
