There are many ways to contribute.
Let's make a village.
Mother the mother. (from Postpartum Support International)
Give a new mom a hug.
Assist a new mom you know - child care, cooking, phone calls.
Ask how she's doing.
Send a present for her as well as the baby.
Volunteer for a support group on PPD.
We need your help getting the word out about Postpartum Depression!
The tour of the new play, In the Shadow of my Son, written
and adapted by Nadine Bernard, is doing
just that. It is getting people talking. It is shining the light on an
issue that has spent too many years in darkness. As years of women’s
suffering comes into our country’s consciousness, we need a community event
to unite us in an effort to help new mothers. Your support in the form of a
donation would help us do just that. We need your dollars to continue this campaign.
Without your support, the cry of new mothers will remain a
script in the bottom of a drawer, unheard like so many unhappy women who
have suffered in silence.
