We want to apologize for the confusion today, we had a post scheduled to go out about First Foods, but it didn’t publish as planned. That’s on us!

First Foods for today, May 23rd is cancelled and has been rescheduled to Saturday, May 30th from 11AM–1PM (or until food runs out!) Same time, same great energy.

We’re so grateful for everyone who shows up and participates in this program. It truly means the world to us. No need to do anything differently, just come through on the 30th and we’ll be ready for you! 🥦🍎

We’re sorry for any inconvenience and appreciate your grace and patience with us. See you soon! 💛

¡Hola, familia de MAAME! 💛

Queremos disculparnos por la confusión de hoy — teníamos una publicación programada para salir sobre First Foods, pero no se publicó como estaba planeado. ¡Eso fue un error nuestro!

First Foods de hoy, 23 de mayo, está cancelado y ha sido reprogramado para el sábado 30 de mayo de 11AM–1PM (¡o hasta que se acabe la comida!) Mismo horario, misma buena energía.

Estamos muy agradecidos con todos los que se presentan y participan en este programa. Realmente significa mucho para nosotros. No necesitan hacer nada diferente — ¡simplemente vengan el día 30 y estaremos listos para recibirlos! 🥦🍎

Nos disculpamos por cualquier inconveniencia y apreciamos su comprensión y paciencia con nosotros. ¡Hasta pronto! 💛

To the mamas, grandmamas, aunties, godmothers, and othermothers loving on babies today, we hope somebody is loving on you back.

We have always been a matriarchal people. Long before doulas were called doulas, the women in our families were doing this work. Catching babies. Feeding new mamas. Nurturing youngins who weren't even our own. Passing down what we knew so the next mama wouldn't have to figure it out alone.

That's the tradition we're keeping alive.

And if today is tender for you, we see you too. If your mama isn't here. If your arms are empty. If the relationship is complicated. We're thinking about you.

Happy Mother's Day, y'all. 💗

Thank you, North Carolina. 💛This past Saturday, you showed up for us at Shepard Middle School at our 3rd Annual MAAME Ru...

Thank you, North Carolina. 💛

This past Saturday, you showed up for us at Shepard Middle School at our 3rd Annual MAAME Run, Walk & Stroll, from Durham and from across the state.
Run for Moms. Walk for Doulas. Stroll for Birth Justice. That's what the day was about.

A heartfelt thank you to our sponsors, vendors, and partners who made this event possible:
