She also, in December 2023, launched a birthday fundraiser to sponsor one woman’s perinatal and midwifery birth support.
The response was so huge, the one-off fundraiser became birthFUND—launched to help provide midwifery care and support for families across the country.Here, she and fellow birthFUND advocate and CNN anchor talk candidly about their own labors and their ambitious goals to improve childbirth outcomes.Abby Phillip: So, tell me more about where this idea came from and what made you feel like it had to be done?Elaine Welteroth: One of my goals with birthFUND is to help change the culture of birth in this country, to help raise the standard of care, and to raise a sense of consciousness around how much better it would be for the whole family unit if midwifery care was integrated into our modern medical ecosystem.It all started with my own experience of navigating a very broken maternal healthcare system.

Everyone's waiting for someone else to fix it.
