Family Resource Network Feeding Babies Initiative

February 2026 | $20,000

Grant funds will support the Family Resource Network of Mason’s Feeding Babies Initiative. Feeding Babies is a new initiative launched last year in direct response to a growing need for infant formula—including specialty varieties—and comprehensive breastfeeding support. At present, the Family Resource Network is the sole provider of formula in the area, as local food pantries are unable to meet the unique nutritional requirements of infants.

To address these challenges, they offer a range of free services, including formula, baby food, and breastfeeding training videos and lactation classes. Learn more at https://www.frnmason.org/

In total, Create Healthy has contributed $15,000.00 to the Family Resource Network of Mason. See more of those donations here, where grants and other contributions are updated quarterly.

Since 2023, Create Healthy has contributed over $13,734,260.01 across the Hill Country communities of Gillespie, Blanco, Llano, and Mason Counties, as well as the city of Comfort. Learn more about all of Create Healthy’s community investments here.
