Alumna’s Startup Gives Babies a Healthy Start
Sahar Jamal, founder of Maziwa, is creating a battery-powered breast pump so new mothers in East Africa can return to work. Maziwa’s design includes a cooler and pump so that women can collect and store breast milk even if they have no access to electricity or refrigeration, and the pump’s sleek, compact design also allows women to pump more discreetly.

I was stunned to see that Maresca and Moore's bag is made of leather, the use of which supports cruelty to animals. As successful fashion designer Stella McCartney said in 2012, “Using leather to make a handbag is cruel. But it’s also not modern; you’re not pushing innovation” (New York Times Magazine, 2-22-12). I am saddened that this is the best these women could do.
