Postpartum Support Project

The Story

Research confirms that parents who are cared for and supported after having a baby are more likely to feel confident, have a lower incidence of postpartum depression, and have greater success with breastfeeding. Eastern North Carolina is in need of these additional support services for new mothers and their families.

HOPE Women & Family Services, Inc. strives to help families in eastern North Carolina through the 4th trimester and baby's first year of life. We thank you in advance for your gift, which will directly impact the women and families of eastern North Carolina.

Our fundraising goal amount is set to cover 6 women and family units with our comprehensive service model. Our goal amount includes training, office supplies and fees. HOPE Women & Family Services, Inc. started from the ground up and has so far accomplished becoming incorporated, receiving our 501(c)(3) nonprofit status, and securing promotional tools and community partnerships.
