because of you…
You’re the reason we’re able to serve women with postpartum depression.
A few years back, God gave our founder, Arielle, the vision to start a non-profit offering affordable (in many cases free) drugless mental health support to postpartum moms. While she was battling ppd, this is the exact service she searched for for months before realizing it didn’t exist.
Listen, we’re not big on stats, but statistically speaking, postpartum depression occurs in about 1 out of every 8 women. And it’s even more common for low-income women. One study found that more than half of low-income moms met the criteria for ppd!
Sadly, a large majority of postpartum moms struggling with anxiety and depression won’t ever get the health they need because they can’t afford it. Many will struggle in silence. Those who do raise their hand to get help will likely be prescribed an antidepressant and sent on their way.
We know from experience that this isn’t the best option long term, yet it’s become the standard of care. It’s our goal to change the standard but we’ll need your help to do it!

“i’m just one person, what can I do?”
It only takes your willingness to help and you can change the world! We know it sounds cliche, but it’s true. Think of MLK and Mother Theresa, they were just one person, yet they each changed the world as we knew it.
We’re not saying you have to be the next superhero, but you can be a world changer. Whether you give your time, money or resources, it makes a HUGE difference in the lives of the moms we serve!
