It Takes a Village to Transform Maternal Care

This Mother's Day, SisterWeb is reviving the village model of care through our community-based doula network. Our doulas aren't outside professionals—they are sisters, neighbors, and community members providing culturally responsive care that traditional healthcare alone cannot.

Your Gift Strengthens Our Village

Comprehensive doula care throughout a family’s perinatal journey requires resources that government and foundations simply cannot fund alone. While both are absolutely critical to our sustainability, it takes a community of supporters like you to build a strong village. Your contribution strengthens our organization by enabling:

Extended presence: Ten weeks of intensive postpartum support versus the standard 6 weeks, ensuring no mother faces the fourth trimester alone
Sustainability: Fair compensation ensuring our doulas can continue their vital community work
Wisdom: Innovative, community-centered approaches that honor ancestral knowledge.```html

Join Us in Celebrating Birth This Mother's Day

We're seeking $50,000 to expand our doula care to more families who fall through the cracks of traditional healthcare. When you donate, you become part of our village.

Why It Takes a Village: Our Community-Based Approach

Modern maternal healthcare has dismantled the village that traditionally surrounded birthing people. At SisterWeb, we're rebuilding that village:

Our doulas bring generational wisdom, cultural understanding, and shared lived experiences to each birth
We provide continuous support throughout pregnancy, birth, and the critical postpartum period
We address the whole person—physical, emotional, spiritual, and social needs that impact birth outcomes
We create sustainable livelihoods for women of color, strengthening the entire maternal health ecosystem while addressing maternal health disparities
