Because
Race Shouldn’t Compromise Birthing Outcomes
Black women are 3xs more likely to experience complications during childbirth. We’re committed to changing that through funding doula services for Black mothers.
Apply for a grant to cover your doula fees.
Are you an expecting parent living in the Washington, D.C metropolitan area or Baltimore, MD, who has identified as African American, African, Afro-Latinx or Black throughout 100% of your life? If so, apply for a grant today! We are currently accepting grant applications for black birthing people delivering October-December 2023. The October-December 2023 grant cycle deadline closes on August 31st, 2023. Doula grants for the October-December 2023 grant cycle will be awarded by September 11th, 2023.
Note: If the birthing person does not identify as Black, they are ineligible to receive a grant from the Black Doula Project.
