Nourish: Mommy and Me
Donation protected
We are putting together a project called "Nourish: Mommy and Me". Our goal is to educate pregnant women on the importance of nutrition for themselves and for their newborns and to spread awareness around the importance of healthy moms and their babies.
Our project is two-fold. We will first create paper and electronic resources to provide for mothers, explaining resources available to the mothers and the nutritional needs during pregnancy. Simultaneously, we will be collecting donations to create boxes that have all of the ingredients necessary to create nutritionally whole meals for pregnant women and new mothers.
The money raised from this Go Fund Me will be used to create these boxes. Within these boxes will be a nutritionally sound recipe for the mother, as well as all of the ingredients necessary for preparation. Along with this, we will have pamphlets outlining the Recommend Daily Intake for all nutrients vital to the mother and the baby's well-being. Donations will cover the cost of printing to include these in the boxes.
Our group is working on this project as a part of the University of Maryland's Do Good Challenge. The Do Good Challenge is a competition between student-run initiatives that maximize impact for a particular cause or organization through volunteering, fundraising, and/or awareness efforts during the course of the Challenge.
