Your donation matters.
VCBF exists to help South Community Birth Program advance values of improving health outcomes for underserved families in Vancouver. We’re committed to providing more pregnant people and families with funded doulas and material resources to increase long-term family health.
Tax receipts can be issued by request for any donation over $20 CAD.
If you so choose, you can decide to donate to a specific area of our program.

Thank you for your generous donations to help families in our community!
CHILDBIRTH DOULA
A childbirth doula offers non-medical pain management support during the birth, and emotional guidance in a culturally competent way, often referred to as a “cultural broker”.
GROCERY GIFT CARDS
Gift cards can be used for fresh food, maternity wear, baby essentials and pharmacy prescriptions - items not always available through food banks.
TAXI & TRANSPORTATION VOUCHERS
For those without access to a vehicle, we cover transportation to and from the hospital, and sometimes for the first in-office postpartum check-up.
SUBSIDIZED COUNSELLING & PHYSIOTHERAPY
Pelvic floor physio and registered clinical counselling are services often necessary in pregnancy or postpartum. We subsidize and fund these services.
Your donation provides essential support for families!
PRENATAL CLASSES
We believe that belonging to a community is an essential component of long-term family health. Our work fosters community and connection through our group Connecting Pregnancy program.
PREGNANCY SUPPLEMENTS & BIRTH SUPPLIES
From TENS pads during labour to iron supplements, we ensure families can access the supplies they need for a healthy pregnancy and birth.
