Donations

Infinite gratitude for any donations made to our organization. Donations may be made to the organization as a whole or to any of the specific projects, and are tax deductable under our 501c3 organization in the US.

Projects Include:

Childbirth Education classes: Donations will go towards photocopies, handouts and childbirth education materials: birth videos, pregnancy and childbirth laminates, birthing balls, exercise mats and neonate supplies such as newborn clothing, blankets and cloth diapers.

A projector is one of our dreams so that we may enrich this course with natural birth videos and power point presentations.

In hospital play rooms for pediatric wards: We are working on creating a space in the two main local public hospitals where children can go to play, read, paint etc. during their hospital stay.

Doula Courses: These courses train obstetras and students in how to improve the quality of care given to the women during pregnancy, childbirth and the post-partum period.

Conscious Maternity also supports the Health Clinic of Belen Pampa. This is a local and public health clinic which aims at becoming a nationally recognized natural birth clinic for low risk pregnant women. Their ideals include empowering women through education of pregnancy, birth and early motherhood; offering women respect and support during prenatal visits and labor and delivery; minimal intervention during labor and delivery (women are completely mobile); promotion of vertical delivery and encouraging women to choose a position most comfortable for her; delayed cord clamping and early skin to skin contact with the mother. All women leave the clinic breastfeeding their child.

Like a Heart beat

"Just as a women's heart knows how and when to pump, her lungs to inhale, and her hand to pull back from fire, so she knows when and how to give birth." ~ Virginia Di Orio

"Life only demands the strength you possess." ~ David Hammarskjold

 

Harmony

A woman
in harmony
with her spirit
is like
a river flowing.
She goes
where she will
without pretense
and arrives
at her destination,
prepared
to be herself
and
only
herself. ~ Maya Angelou
