Help us pay our MIDWIFES!
By ÅsaPär Hedberg — Shouldn't all women have the right to give birth without worrying about money? Help us pay our MIDWIFES - get a handmade glass art gift!
This fundraise project is described in the linked video. In the slide show movie we tell our story in Swedish, subtitled in English. We are in a need of money to pay a proper salary to the angel midwifes that have promised to assist us with our home birth, very soon to come.
Sweden is one of few countries in the EU area that doesn't economically support home birth. What is even worth; it is a matter of what of the many county health care areas one happen to belong to.
If our fundraise exceeds our financial goal the surplus goes to the organisation "the Birth House" in Gothenburg that acts for womens rights in childbirth and also runs an ambulating midwife home birth service.
As a full time working artist (BA of Fine Arts Pietermaritzburg SA / Sunderland University UK I have designed and will make glass art jewellery and send to those who contribute 20€ or more. But every little counts and a report on the result of the fundraise and of course the story of the birth of "the Insider" will be found at our Facebook site in early November.
