The Duke Endowment has awarded funding to the Carolina Global Breastfeeding Institute to support breastfeeding across the Carolinas. The endowment has also provided awards to other organizations, including Atrium Health and the Standard Black Doula Program, although the specific purposes of these awards vary. The scope and details of the awards are not entirely clear, as The Duke Endowment appears to be supporting a range of initiatives beyond breastfeeding.
