Village of Time Supports The Mothers’ Milk Bank at Austin’s Under the Milky Way event

Attend the annual Under the Milk Way event from Mother’s Milk Bank – support the organization, and check out the Village of Time items that will be available at the silent auction, including Gifted Root trees and Nights in Paris!

The Mothers’ Milk Bank at Austin’s Under the Milky Way event benefits the Charitable Care Program. This year’s event is also a celebration of our 20th anniversary of saving the lives of premature and medically-fragile babies through the provision of donor human milk.

As a guest you’ll enjoy an elegant evening featuring a delicious family-style meal from Pink Avocado Catering, enjoy the sounds of Ready Betty, and hear stories from those who were brave enough to say “we must do more for these fragile babies,” and then set out to create Austin’s Milk Bank. You’ll also have the opportunity to take home some great prizes in our silent and live auctions, and show your dedication to saving a vulnerable infant’s life by joining our first-ever Life-Saving Paddles Up! So, let’s get ready to have some FUN!
