COMMUNITY LIFT

AmplifyingVoicesOnTheGround.png
Help us #PushItForward
#UnitedWePush is not just our slogan - it's one of our founding principles.

 

We are stronger together and we believe in lifting up others in our community who are on the ground, doing the work to #PushItForward and ensure every expectant family and every baby gets the best possible chance to make it home safe together.

To that end, we'd like to introduce our #CommunityLift series! From time to time, we will feature community-based initiatives from across the US that need your help now.

Whether it's a small donation, a show of support, a post share, or something more, every little bit counts. Please join us in ๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—ฝ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ณ๐˜†๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด these important messages to ๐—ฒ๐—บ๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐˜„๐—ฒ๐—ฟ birthing people and those who are striving to keep them and their babies safe and informed.

Check out the list below for current initiatives we'd love to see the PUSH community pitch in on!

Our friends at Saul's Light provide resources and support to help NICU and bereaved families meet their day-to-day needs. After Hurricane Ida ravaged their city - forcing many families to evacuate while their fragile babies stayed back in the NICU - Saul's Light is in need of supplies and assistance to care for families during this incredibly stressful time and help reunite them with their children as soon as possible.

Call for Bereavement Leave

If your child dies - due to stillbirth or any other cause - you can be fired the next day for not showing up for work. 16 US Senators are currently writing the bill to fix this. They need to hear your stories of pregnancy and infant loss to understand why bereavement leave is so important! Evermore has asked us to CALL each of these reps and sign the petition.
