Our Birth Future is Liberated

Birth Future Foundation funds midwives, so that all birthing people can choose the birth they want, and get the care they deserve.

When we invest in midwives, we uplift communities.

We know the statistics. We know that the systems are failing us. We are focusing our energy and resources on the solutions. BFF makes grants to support Black, Brown, Indigenous, and LGBTQIA+ midwives, future midwives, and changemakers in the United States. We are BFF. Join us.

$175,000 since 2022

Since we began making grants in 2022, BFF has granted over $175,000! BFF has made grants to over 100 midwives and midwifery students, 9 community based organizations, and 1 researcher. (Read about our grantees.)

BFF’s equitable and ethical approach to grantmaking is revolutionizing philanthropy and shifting power back to communities. (Read about our approach.)
