Special Thanks to Hillsview Community Church!

Today we received some happy news! The Women’s Ministry at the Hillsview Community Church in Damascus, Oregon have opened their hearts and hands by pledging to create blankets for our kids through the blanket drive. They are also setting up donation bins in their lobby for clothing items. If you live in Damascus, feel free to drop by their church and say hi or give them a call at (503) 912-0116!

No October Meeting & an Update

There will be no October Meeting for Ayla Birth, but I will go ahead and update everyone here.

1. Ayla Birth is still on track with our 10/31 501(3)(c) submission and I'm hopeful it will be accepted by the IRS on the first try.

2. We got our baby/mom pictures and they look awesome!

3. There is a potential for one of our doulas, Jane, to meet with Health Connections in Chicago over the Thanksgiving holiday.

4. The website is a little bit behind, but since Mr. Evans is doing it for free, I'm rather hard pressed to complain about it .

5. I have met with Madia from Right After Delivery Doula Service is working on our postpartum side and I'm very excited to have her expertise on board.

Thanks everyone!
