Here's the thing: I haaaaate asking for help, no less money. I know we're all struggling out there in real-people land, or at least most of us. So the brownie photo should be a peace-keeper, right? I can hope, at least.
We will have fundraisers in the future to help fund what we have going here AND SO MUCH MORE. Seriously, more. But for now, All I have is a donate button and a photo of brownies. I watched an "inspirational," get-your-butt-back-on-the-couch-and-blog kind of YouTube video the other day while washing dishes (that's my go-to learning time). The gist of this particular video was finding a blog topic that is interesting, captivating, ya-da ya-da... And NOT about how you're getting evicted (she said that, seriously). She went on and on about how people don't want to read about your money woes, so I won't bore you with mine here! But I do need help to keep this amazing community up and running, so I have finally placed a Donate button on the Website. Donations of any shape and size will go directly towards Website fees, printable materials, our Sacred Circles project, becoming a Non-Profit organization (so we can shout to the world - we're a real boy now - or woman, whichever!), and other Momma Trauma Blog related needs. Those are the biggies right now though. Also in our very near future: Venturing out from the confines of our screens and participating in *ready for this??* conferences and even teaming up with a few national/international organizations and their projects. So back to the brownies: I can eat a whole plate of brownies all on my own and feel yucky and all alone afterwards. Or I can share that plate of brownies with our community to expand our reach to find parents and birth workers who need us, help those of us who are already here in need of support and raise awareness to help others understand birth trauma and perinatal violence and how we can reduce those situations that are so rampant in our healthcare system. Will you take a bite and donate? Has this community helped you in some way? Do you want to help others empower themselves so they can find healing?
