I am thrilled to announce that I have recently graduated and am embarking on an incredible journey to open a birth center that will provide compassionate, holistic care for expecting families. 

This birth center will be a sanctuary where birthers can experience supported, safe, and empowering births. 

Unfortunately, the reality is that minority birthing individuals are 3-4 times more likely to face complications in childbirth, and Black newborns face mortality rates 2-3 times higher than their non-Black counterparts. 

It is crucial that we change these alarming statistics. I believe that every family deserves access to a space that honors their birth choices and promotes their well-being during this transformative time. 

That’s why I’m reaching out to our community—your support is essential. Your donations will help us create a welcoming facility, acquire essential equipment, and hire dedicated staff to provide high-quality, evidence-based care. 

 Please, consider donating and sharing this campaign. 

Together, we can establish a birth center that truly serves and uplifts the community. 

Thank you for being a part of this important life-changing journey.

 Let's make a difference, one birth at a time!
