Milena's Gonna Be a Mama!

Hello everyone!

We are close friends of Milena Edwards and we are very excited to reach out to you all to invite you to join us in raising funds for her. Over the years it’s been thrilling to see Milena’s jump into starting a small business--her own private practice!-- and creating a home in Walnut Creek. Now she is embarking on her next chapter and welcoming a baby!

As you all may know, Milena has been hoping and longing for a baby for a very long time. We are overjoyed that this baby is arriving in early June! Let’s help Milena feel supported and held as she becomes a mom to her little girl.

One simple way to support her is to alleviate some of the costs that this enormous transition entails so that she can more easily focus on the joy of becoming a mother and bonding with her baby. Let’s help her cover the post-insurance hospital delivery costs ($5,000), or her self-funded maternity leave from her private practice, or help this single Mama get some sleep when she returns to work!! Did you know that a night nurse costs $200/hour?! We can do this!

Most importantly, we want to surround Milena with support, love, and care as she takes on single motherhood all while being the owner of a small business.

We kindly ask that you keep this fundraiser amongst ourselves (no Facebook!) in order to protect Milena’s privacy. Thank you so much!

With gratitude and warmth for your generosity,

Ana Noles, Bridget Brennan, Stephanie Morgan, May Lee Heye, Kristen Carey and Leah Balowitz
