This fund provides financial support, access and education to BIPOC doulas and the families that they serve. Working to end the scarcity paradigm, recognize the worth of doulas in birth and pay them accordingly while they serve at risk and marginalized communities that need their advocacy and education.

Black birthing people are 4x as likely to die in childbirth compared to their white counterparts. The industrialized medical system has proven to be dangerous for BIPOC birthing people and their families. Doulas are proven to not only improve the outcomes of birth but create more aligned birth experiences for families cultivating healing and promoting educated informed consent.

Believing all Doulas should be paid for their hard work, effort and holding space this fund provides full payment to Doulas attending BIPOC births as well as provides scholarships for BIPOC Doulas to attend training, obtain a mentor and/or any continued education.
