    The Visitation Birth Center

    Mary Carol is organizing this fundraiser.

    For the past 5 years I have been working full time to build an alternative birth center in Kentucky.  Prior to that I had worked toward that goal while being otherwise employed.  

    Kentucky has NO Alternative Birth Centers!!!  

    Kentucky women need options!!!  

    I have been without a salary for 5 years, and have spent my saved IRA's and retirement funds to work toward this goal.  This was spent on the lawyer, certificate of need, architect, expert witnesses and their travel, etc.  It has been a fight that is meaningless and unjust. 

    If this is to continue, I need your financial support as well as your emotional support.  Kentucky needs MIDWIVES!!!  

    Please consider donating....
    Even if it is a small amount monthly....
    You deserve to be part of the solution.....
    You deserve to be treated humanely in labor and birth....

    Help fund a birth center now.

    As an alternative, please send a check to :
    The Visitation Birth & Family Wellness Center
    1704 N. Dixie Hwy, Suite E-7
