Bee Brave Bug: Support New Mums' Mental Health
Donation protected
Hi everyone, I'm Steph, the founder of Bee Brave Bug, and I'm reaching out today to share a cause close to my heart: supporting the mental well-being of mothers in Mother & Baby Units (MBUs). What are MBUs? They're specialized hospital units where mothers experiencing emotional challenges bond with their newborns. These mamas face immense pressure and often feel isolated. That's where Bee Brave Bug comes in. We create and deliver thoughtfully curated wellness bags filled with self-care essentials and uplifting messages, offering a small but meaningful gesture of comfort and reminding them they're not alone. Imagine: a new mama struggling in an MBU, feeling overwhelmed and scared. Then, she receives a Bee Brave Bug bag, filled with cozy socks, calming tea, and a handwritten note of encouragement. It might seem small, but it can make a world of difference.
Here's why your support matters:
• Perinatal mental health is crucial. 1 in 5 mothers experience mental health challenges after childbirth. MBUs provide vital support, but there's always more we can do.
• Bee Brave Bug bags offer a tangible reminder of care. They show these mamas they're seen, valued, and deserve to feel good.
• Your contribution, big or small, makes a difference. Every donation helps us create and deliver more bags, reaching more mothers in need.
How can you help?
• Donate to our GoFundMe campaign: Every dollar helps us purchase items for our bags and cover delivery costs.
• Share our page with your followers: Spread awareness about perinatal mental health and Bee Brave Bug's mission.
• Follow us on Instagram: @beebravebug. See the impact of your support and connect with our community.
Together, we can create a wave of support for mothers in MBUs, reminding them they're brave, strong, and not alone. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Let's bee brave together!
