Help Us Raise $10,000 to Build a New Birth Center in Brooklyn
The second annual Haven Midwifery 5K Run/Walk isn’t just about crossing the finish line, it’s about building one. We’re on a mission to raise $10,000 toward opening a birth center right here in Brooklyn, NY, and we need your help to get there.
The 5K takes place during Birth Center Week, bringing together runners, walkers, families, and community members who believe every woman should have access to respectful, informed, and safe maternity care regardless of income level.
Brooklyn is home to countless women and families who want birth options outside of a hospital setting, yet choices remain limited. Haven Midwifery, a non-profit organization, is committed to changing that. Every step you take in this 5K directly supports their capital campaign to open the doors of Brooklyn’s next birth center.
This is more than a run, it’s a rally. A celebration of what happens when a community comes together to make change. Join us at the starting line and help create a future where every woman in Brooklyn has the birth experience she chooses and deserves.
Every registration, every donation, and every share gets us closer to our $10,000 goal.
