Zudayea is a first-time mom who came to PHEI in desperate need of a doula. She is 37 weeks pregnant and could deliver any day now, so this is an urgent matter.

You see, Zudayea suffers from severe anxiety. She is afraid of pain and the complications that can come from giving birth and strongly believes that having a birth doula by her side will reduce her anxiety, help keep both herself and her unborn daughter safe, and increase her chances of having a better childbirth experience.

We don't provide doula services, but after hearing her story, I knew we had to help her. Unfortunately, it is too late in Zudayea's pregnancy to secure a doula for her through our free or low cost options, so I need us to come together as a community to cover the costs of a doula for her.

We need to raise $2,010 by 3/10/24, in order to secure a doula for Zudayea.

I wish PHEI could cover the cost, but we just didn't budget for this unexpected expense. Zudayea is EXACTLY the kind of mama we want to alway be ready to support. Would you please help her?

Please consider sending your best gift today.

P.S. Due to the time sensitive nature of Zudayea's situation, we need to secure her doula by this weekend. Please send your gift today!
