BORN PROTECTED: The Black Birth Gathering

🖤🤎Black birth deserves protection.🤎🖤

BORN PROTECTED is an intimate community gathering kicking off Black Maternal Health Week. This event is designed specifically for pregnant Black individuals and Black families with babies under one year old.

Hosted by Milk & Marigold x BEBOP Collective, this park celebration centers joy, advocacy, education, and tangible support.

Black women in the United States are 2–3 times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes. We believe community care, culturally affirming support, and village protection are part of the solution.

✨ What to Expect at Born Protected: ✨

🍼 Free baby supplies & diapers – because essentials matter.

🌿 Postpartum care kits – nurturing the parent, too.

📣 Advocacy education & empowerment tools – say it with your chest.

🎟 Raffle prizes – because we love a good surprise.

🎉 Family-friendly baby shower games – joy is resistance.

🖤 Healing affirmation space – pause, breathe, be held.

🍽 Light refreshments & community vibes – come hungry for connection.

This gathering is intimate and intentional — limited to 25 families to ensure meaningful support and access to resources. Partners and support people are welcome 🤎

🖤🤎Because Black birth deserves protection.🤎🖤
