2023 “Tending to the Soil” Grant Cycle is Open!

Applications are due November 20 for BFF’s biggest grant fund yet!

Birth Future Foundation is excited to announce our new grant making cycle, Tending to the Soil: Caring for the Caregiver and Cultivating Community. This grant will focus specifically on midwives, preceptors, and midwifery students. The intention of this grant is to water and pour into the amazing midwifery workforce, present and future. This grant will support the midwifery pipeline and nourish it. This grant is for practicing midwives who are taking care of birthing people, mothers, babies, families, and communities with all they have and all they are. We want to show our support to the midwives who choose to become preceptors and train the future of midwifery: the students. And lastly, we want to support midwifery students with fees for the NARM exam. Grants will range from $1,000-$1,500 per grantee.

We are asking you to help us by nominating practicing midwives and preceptors who deserve to be poured into, loved on, and shown some appreciation. Spread the word to midwifery students who you know who have taken the NARM in the last year, plan to take the NARM soon, or need to retake the exam. You can nominate yourself or someone else.
