Hola Community! I need your help!
In September, as I was in between two births, ALL of my essential midwifery supplies were stolen from my car. I need your support to help me replenish the supplies that I lost. It took me about 5 yrs to build my practice and a midwifery tool kit that fully supports me to serve the families I work with. I've grown my capacity to serve more families and it's essential for me to have the tools that I need to work comfortably and safely as soon as possible. I'm currently booked through March 2022, and your donations will actively allow me to provide the best care to the Black and Indigenous families that I serve.
Humbly asking for your financial support if possible, or your help in spreading this fundraiser reposting, emailing etc.
Thank You Community for your love, support, prayers and resources! Honored to be walking my path collaborating with you all, tending to the blooming families on Tongva Land, Los Angeles!
