I don't know about that particular site, but yes, there are a number of milk 
banks around the country that accept donated milk, pasteurize it, and make 
it available to preemies. I would love to be able to do this at some point. 
I think there are also some private groups that do not pasteurize the milk.

I don't know what sites you found regarding breastmilk, but two that have 
been helpful to me are www.workandpump.com and www.kellymom.com. Bookshare 
also has a number of books on breastfeeding and other pregnancy and 
childbirth topics.
